[PATCH 4/5] x86/HVM: drop tsc_scaling.setup() hook

[Jan Beulich]

This was used by VMX only, and the intended VMCS write can as well
happen from vmx_set_tsc_offset(), invoked (directly or indirectly)
almost immediately after the present call sites of the hook.
vmx_set_tsc_offset() isn't invoked frequently elsewhere, so the extra
VMCS write shouldn't raise performance concerns.
