Calibrating the TSC frequency using the kvmclock is not correct for

IMHO, it isn't the good place to call snp_secure_tsc_init() to update the callbacks here.

It's better to be called in some snp init functions.

As part of setup_arch(), init_hypervisor_platform() gets called and all the PV clocks
are registered and initialized as part of init_platform callback. Once the hypervisor
platform is initialized, tsc_early_init() is called. SEV SNP guest can be running on
any hypervisor, so the call back needs to be updated either in tsc_early_init() or
init_hypervisor_platform(), as the change is TSC related, I have updated it here.

I think it might be due to

1. it lacks a central place for SNP related stuff, like tdx_early_init()
2. even we have some place of 1), the callbacks will be overwrote in init_hypervisor_platform() by specific PV ops.

However, I don't think it's good practice to update it tsc.c. The reason why callback is used is that arch/hypervisor specific code can implement
and overwrite with it's own implementation in its own file.

Back to your case, I think a central snp init function would be helpful, and we can introduce a new flag to skip the overwrite of tsc/cpu calibration for hypervisor when the flag is set.
