After the previous patch from Marcelo, the comment before this write became obsolete. In fact, the write is unnecessary. The calls to kvm_write_tsc ultimately result in a master clock update as soon as all TSCs agree and the master clock is re-enabled. This master clock update will rewrite tsc_timestamp.
So, together with the comment, delete the dead write too.
