This reverts commit 55d98e3edeeb17dd8445db27605d2b34f4c3ba85.

The commit introduced a regression in the replay functional test
on alpha (tests/functional/alpha/test_replay.py), that causes CI
failures regularly. Thus revert this change until someone has
figured out what is going wrong here.

Hi Thomas,

I am actively investigating this problem, but haven't made any important progress so far. It's looking like a timing bug which is annoying to track down. All I know for certain at the moment is that faking some of the values returned by qemu_clock_get_ns to be deterministic improves the failure rate, but does not remove it entirely. I'm fine with this being reverted for now; we can add it back in once we figure out what the true cause is.

Thanks for investigating this. Let's have the commit reverted until there is some progress:

After the quiescence commit, timeouts were the only regression, until
f098c32db48 ("target/s390x: Fix infinite loop during replay") when the
replay test began failing with error, too; maybe this serves as a
diagnostic trigger?
