soc/amd/stoneyridge/monotonic_time: add comment that we can't use TSC

Due to a non-constant TSC rate before the microcode update is applied,
the Performance Time Stamp Counter is used instead. To clarify this, add
a comment to the timestamp_get implementation. See commit 24079323d4d8
("soc/amd/stoneyridge: provide alternate monotonic timer") and the
description of the TscInvariant bit in CPUID Fn8000_0007_EDX Advanced
Power Management Information in the public version of BKDG #55072 Rev
3.09 for more details.
