TSC calibration on virtual machines is always error prone. It was found
that in nested environments Gen2 instances may get stuck on boot. As
Hyper-V hosts provide us with all the required information we can easily
avoid calibration. This is already done for other hypervisors (KVM,
Vmware).

hyper-v: check frequency MSRs presence according to the specification
hyper-v: read TSC frequency from a synthetic MSR
