Secure TSC enabled guests should not write to the MSR_IA32_TSC(10H)
register as the subsequent TSC value reads are undefined. For AMD platform,
MSR_IA32_TSC is intercepted by the hypervisor. MSR_IA32_TSC read/write
accesses should not exit to the hypervisor for such guests.

Accesses to MSR_IA32_TSC needs 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.
