x86, hyperv: Bypass the timer_irq_works() check
This patch bypass the timer_irq_works() check for hyperv guest since:
- It was guaranteed to work.
- timer_irq_works() may fail sometime due to the lpj calibration were inaccurate
in a hyperv guest or a buggy host.
In the future, we should get the tsc frequency from hypervisor and use preset
lpj instead.
[ hpa: I would prefer to not defer things to "the future" in the future... ]
