x86: re-enable VCPUOP_register_vcpu_time_memory_area
By moving the call to update_vcpu_system_time() out of schedule() into arch-specific context switch code, the original problem of the function accessing the wrong domain's address space goes away (obvious even from patch context, as update_runstate_area() does similar copying).
