x86: KVM guest: disable clock before rebooting.
This patch writes 0 (actually, what really matters is that the
LSB is cleared) to the system time msr before shutting down
the machine for kexec.
Without it, we can have a random memory location being written
when the guest comes back
It overrides the functions shutdown, used in the path of kernel_kexec() (sys.c)
and crash_shutdown, used in the path of crash_kexec() (kexec.c)
