This effectively reverts commit 332967a3eac0 ("x86: kvm: introduce
periodic global clock updates"). The periodic update was introduced to
propagate NTP corrections to the guest KVM clock, when the KVM clock was
based on CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

However, commit 53fafdbb8b21 ("KVM: x86: switch KVMCLOCK base to
monotonic raw clock") switched to using CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW as the basis
for the KVM clock, avoiding the NTP frequency skew altogether.

So the periodic update serves no purpose. Remove it.
