Subject: [PATCH v8 15/16] x86/cpu/amd: Do not print FW_BUG for Secure TSC

When SecureTSC is enabled and TscInvariant (bit 8) in CPUID_8000_0007_edx
is set, kernel complains with the below firmware bug:

[Firmware Bug]: TSC doesn't count with P0 frequency!

Secure TSC need not run at P0 frequency, the TSC frequency is set by the
VMM as part of the SNP_LAUNCH_START command. Avoid the check when Secure
TSC is enabled
