Reading QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL is thread-safe, write access is NOP.
This makes possible to boot Windows with large vCPUs count when
hv-time is not used.
Reproducer:
-M q35,hpet=off -cpu host -enable-kvm -smp 240,sockets=4 -m 8G WS2025.img
fails to boot within 30min.
With this fix it boots within 2-1min.
