drivers/hv: correct tsc page sequence invalid value

Browse Source 
Hypervisor Top Level Functional Specification v3/4 says
that TSC page sequence value = -1(0xFFFFFFFF) is used to
indicate that TSC page no longer reliable source of reference
timer. Unfortunately, we found that Windows Hyper-V guest
side implementation uses sequence value = 0 to indicate
that Tsc page no longer valid. This is clearly visible
inside Windows 2012R2 ntoskrnl.exe HvlGetReferenceTime()
function dissassembly:

HvlGetReferenceTime proc near
                 xchg    ax, ax
loc_1401C3132:
                 mov     rax, cs:HvlpReferenceTscPage
                 mov     r9d, [rax]
                 test    r9d, r9d
                 jz      short loc_1401C3176
                 rdtsc
                 mov     rcx, cs:HvlpReferenceTscPage
                 shl     rdx, 20h
                 or      rdx, rax
                 mov     rax, [rcx+8]
                 mov     rcx, cs:HvlpReferenceTscPage
                 mov     r8, [rcx+10h]
                 mul     rdx
                 mov     rax, cs:HvlpReferenceTscPage
                 add     rdx, r8
                 mov     ecx, [rax]
                 cmp     ecx, r9d
                 jnz     short loc_1401C3132
                 jmp     short loc_1401C3184
loc_1401C3176:
                 mov     ecx, 40000020h
                 rdmsr
                 shl     rdx, 20h
                 or      rdx, rax
loc_1401C3184:
                 mov     rax, rdx
                 retn

This patch aligns Tsc page invalid sequence value with
Windows Hyper-V guest implementation which is more
compatible with both Hyper-V hypervisor and KVM hypervisor.
