    update system time immediately when VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info
    
    The guest may access the pv vcpu_time_info immediately after
    VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info. This is to borrow the idea of
    VCPUOP_register_vcpu_time_memory_area, where the
    force_update_vcpu_system_time() is called immediately when the new memory
    area is registered.
    
    Otherwise, we may observe clock drift at the VM side if the VM accesses
    the clocksource immediately after VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info().
