clocksource/drivers/hyperv: Enable TSC page clocksource on 32bit
There is no particular reason to not enable TSC page clocksource on 32-bit. mul_u64_u64_shr() is available and despite the increased computational complexity (compared to 64bit) TSC page is still a huge win compared to MSR-based clocksource. In-kernel reads: MSR based clocksource: 3361 cycles TSC page clocksource: 49 cycles Reads from userspace (utilizing vDSO in case of TSC page): MSR based clocksource: 5664 cycles TSC page clocksource: 131 cycles Enabling TSC page on 32bits allows to get rid of CONFIG_HYPERV_TSCPAGE as it is now not any different from CONFIG_HYPERV_TIMER.
