[PATCH 1/2] KVM: x86: reduce pvclock_gtod_sync_lock critical sections

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

There is no need to include changes to vcpu->requests into
the pvclock_gtod_sync_lock critical section.  The changes to
the shared data structures (in pvclock_update_vm_gtod_copy)
already occur under the lock.
