This happens in a normal guest too:
[ 0.000000] [Firmware Bug]: TSC doesn't count with P0 frequency!
[ 0.000000] BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
[ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000000009ffff] usable
...
[ 0.000000] DMI: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 2023.11-8 02/21/2024

If anything, this should check X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR but this is just a silly
warning so you don't really need to do anything about it.
