Current code initializes clock event data structure for syn timer
even when it's unavailable. Fix it.

Thank you for fixing the subject! I had one more question on the
previous version which still stands: which tree is this patch for?
Upstream, clockevent allocation has moved to
drivers/clocksource/hyperv_timer.c and the code there is different.

Yes, I just noticed I fixed an issue on the old code after Michael reminded me. Sorry for noise. Please ignore it.
