Make kvm_synchronize_all_tsc() nop for TD-guest.

s/nop/noop


TDX module specification, 9.11.1 TSC Virtualization

This appears in 9.12.1 of the latest revision as of this writing.

https://software.intel.com/content/dam/develop/external/us/en/documents/tdx-module-1eas-v0.85.039.pdf

"Virtual TSC values are consistent among all the TD;s VCPUs at the

s/TD;s/TDs

level suppored by the CPU".

s/suppored/supported

There is no need for qemu to synchronize tsc and VMM can't access
to guest TSC. Actually do_kvm_synchronize_tsc() hits assert due to
failure to write to guest tsc.

qemu/target/i386/kvm.c:235: kvm_get_tsc: Assertion `ret == 1' failed.
