[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3] x86: Incorporate timestamp in delay() and call the latter in io_delay()

[Nadav Amit <nadav.amit@gmail.com>]

There is no guarantee that a self-IPI would be delivered immediately.
In eventinj, io_delay() is called after self-IPI is generated but does
nothing.

In general, there is mess in regard to delay() and io_delay(). There are
two definitions of delay() and they do not really look on the timestamp
counter and instead count invocations of "pause" (or even "nop"), which
might be different on different CPUs/setups, for example due to
different pause-loop-exiting configurations.

To address these issues change io_delay() to really do a delay, based on
timestamp counter, and move common functions into delay.[hc].
