I'm pretty sure vcpu->arch.l1_tsc_scaling_ratio is set to the correct value only
if the vCPU is using KVM's default frequency, or TSC scaling is supported in
hardware.

	/* TSC scaling supported? */
	if (!kvm_caps.has_tsc_control) {
		if (user_tsc_khz > tsc_khz) {
			vcpu->arch.tsc_catchup = 1;
			vcpu->arch.tsc_always_catchup = 1;
			return 0;
		} else {
			pr_warn_ratelimited("user requested TSC rate below hardware speed\n");
			return -1;
		}
	}

I assume the easiest solution is to enumerate support for KVM_VCPU_TSC_SCALE if
and only if kvm_caps.has_tsc_control is true.
