At some point, we'll have to make that discoverable/configurable. Maybe
the time for a discoverable arch timer has come (see below).

This is quite contentious, IMHO. Do we really want to expose the delta
between the virtual and physical counters? That's a clear indication to
the guest that it is virtualized. I"m not sure it matters, but I think
we should at least make a conscious choice, and maybe give the
opportunity to userspace to select the desired behaviour.
