x86/hyperv: Move TSC reading method to asm/mshyperv.h



As a preparation to making Hyper-V TSC page suitable for vDSO move
the TSC page reading logic to asm/mshyperv.h. While on it, do the
following:

- Document the reading algorithm.
- Simplify the code a bit.
- Add explicit READ_ONCE() to not rely on 'volatile'.
- Add explicit barriers to prevent re-ordering (we need to read sequence
  strictly before and after)
- Use mul_u64_u64_shr() instead of assembly, gcc generates a single 'mul'
  instruction on x86_64 anyway.

[ tglx: Simplified the loop ]
