[Qemu-ppc] [PATCH 4/4] ppc: ensure we update the decrementer value during migration

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

During local testing with TCG, intermittent errors were found when trying to
migrate Darwin OS images.

The underlying cause was that Darwin resets the decrementer value to fairly
small values on each interrupt. cpu_ppc_set_tb_clk() sets the default value
of the decrementer to 0xffffffff during initialisation which typically
corresponds to several seconds. Hence when restoring the image, the guest
would effectively "lose" decrementer interrupts during this time causing
confusion in the guest.
