xen: delay xen_hvm_init_time_ops() if kdump is boot on vcpu>=32

The sched_clock() can be used very early since commit 857baa87b642
("sched/clock: Enable sched clock early"). In addition, with commit
38669ba205d1 ("x86/xen/time: Output xen sched_clock time from 0"), kdump
kernel in Xen HVM guest may panic at very early stage when accessing
&__this_cpu_read(xen_vcpu)->time as in below:

setup_arch()
 -> init_hypervisor_platform()
     -> x86_init.hyper.init_platform = xen_hvm_guest_init()
         -> xen_hvm_init_time_ops()
             -> xen_clocksource_read()
                 -> src = &__this_cpu_read(xen_vcpu)->time;

This is because Xen HVM supports at most MAX_VIRT_CPUS=32 'vcpu_info'
embedded inside 'shared_info' during early stage until xen_vcpu_setup() is
used to allocate/relocate 'vcpu_info' for boot cpu at arbitrary address.

However, when Xen HVM guest panic on vcpu >= 32, since
xen_vcpu_info_reset(0) would set per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) = NULL when
vcpu >= 32, xen_clocksource_read() on vcpu >= 32 would panic.

This patch calls xen_hvm_init_time_ops() again later in
xen_hvm_smp_prepare_boot_cpu() after the 'vcpu_info' for boot vcpu is
registered when the boot vcpu is >= 32.

This issue can be reproduced on purpose via below command at the guest
side when kdump/kexec is enabled:

"taskset -c 33 echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger"

The bugfix for PVM is not implemented due to the lack of testing
environment.

[boris: xen_hvm_init_time_ops() returns on errors instead of jumping to end]
