x86/time: avoid reading the platform timer in rendezvous functions
Reading the platform timer isn't cheap, so we'd better avoid it when the
resulting value is of no interest to anyone.
The consumer of master_stime, obtained by
time_calibration_{std,tsc}_rendezvous() and propagated through
this_cpu(cpu_calibration), is local_time_calibration(). With
CONSTANT_TSC the latter function uses an early exit path, which doesn't
explicitly use the field. While this_cpu(cpu_calibration) (including the
master_stime field) gets propagated to this_cpu(cpu_time).stamp on that
path, both structures' fields get consumed only by the !CONSTANT_TSC
logic of the function.
