KVM: x86: include pvclock MSRs in msrs_to_save
For a while now, we are issuing a rdmsr instruction to find out which
msrs in our save list are really supported by the underlying machine.
However, it fails to account for kvm-specific msrs, such as the pvclock
ones.
This patch moves then to the beginning of the list, and skip testing them.
