  Detect VMware guest and set the TSC frequency as reported by the hypervisor.
  VMware products virtualize TSC and it run at fixed frequency in so-called
  "apparent time".  Although virtualized i8254 also runs in apparent time, TSC
  calibration always gives slightly off frequency because of the complicated
  timer emulation and lost-tick correction mechanism.
