Updating system_time from the kernel clock once master clock
has been enabled can result in time backwards event, in case
kernel clock frequency is lower than TSC frequency.
Disable master clock in case its necessary to update it
from the resume path.

Use an && instead of an "if"? (Also, why "&" in the other assignment of
ka->use_master_clock)?

Why a global and not a variable inside kvm? The same question holds for
kvm_guest_has_master_clock.
