[PATCH] Gutsy: avoid PIT clocksource when VMI is active

Please apply the attached patch for the next Gutsy kernel update.

This issue can sometimes result in the virtual PIT firing when the 
kernel doesn't really want it -- it's not fatal, but suboptimal.  The 
patch affects code that executes only when booted on a VMI hypervisor.

Thanks,
Dan
