x86/sev: Change TSC MSR behavior for Secure TSC enabled guests
Secure TSC enabled guests should not write to the MSR_IA32_TSC (0x10) register
as the subsequent TSC value reads are undefined. On AMD, MSR_IA32_TSC is
intercepted by the hypervisor by default. MSR_IA32_TSC read/write accesses
should not exit to the hypervisor for such guests.
Accesses to MSR_IA32_TSC need special handling in the #VC handler for the
guests with Secure TSC enabled. Writes to MSR_IA32_TSC should be ignored and
flagged once with a warning, and reads of MSR_IA32_TSC should return the
result of the RDTSC instruction.
