Just enable the frequency hypercalls with KVM_ENABLE_CAP ioctl and get
rid of this ioctl.
(I don't think that we want to allow disabling this capability.)

Enabling the capability should also set a bit in KVM_CPUID_FEATURES,
a well-behaved guest won't use it otherwise.

And this ioctl has no use, so it should be omitted.
(Userspace doesn't learn anything it doesn't already know.
The feature is unsafe, so the default must be 0.)

This can share an existing return 1 and would be elsewhere with
