[PATCH] vmi: cpu cycles fix
In order to share the common code in tsc.c which does CPU Khz calibration, we need to make an accurate value of CPU speed available to the tsc.c code. This value loses a lot of precision in a VM because of the timing differences with real hardware, but we need it to be as precise as possible so the guest can make accurate time calculations with the cycle counters.
