tsc.c patch to allow KVM hypervisor with host cpu to pass through the good =
TSC

This patch is not "correct" because it just whitelists Generic virtualizati=
on
(VM_GUEST_VM), however I don't see how it can be done correctly at this poi=
nt
of overall coding quality in tsc.c regarding virtualization.

I guess a CPU_VENDOR_VIRTUAL should be considered as an option, so we can l=
eave
host pass-through CPU as a real host CPU and allow virtual CPUs like
QEMU_X86_64 or whatever to be treated separately where all ifs and switches=
 are
tested for stability of CPU TSC (that seems to be the Linux approach).
