KVM does make an attempt to cope with non-constant TSC, and has notifiers
to handle host TSC frequency changes. However, it *only* adjusts the KVM
clock, and doesn't adjust TSC frequency scaling when the host changes.

This is presumably because non-constant TSCs were fixed in hardware long
before TSC scaling was implemented, so there should never be real CPUs
which have TSC scaling but *not* CONSTANT_TSC.

Such a combination could potentially happen in some odd L1 nesting
environment, but it isn't worth trying to support it. Just make the
dependency explicit.
