We can support them by falling back to the kernel. I'm a bit worried
about the kernel playing with the hypervisor's version field. It's
better to introduce yet a new version for the kernel, and check both.
On Nehalem, apps that need timestamp information at a high
frequency will likely use rdtsc/rdtscp directly.
Then they will get incorrect timing once they are live migrated.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
