[PATCH v5 05/16] clocksource/hyperv: use MSR-based access if running as root

When Linux runs as the root partition, the setup required for TSC page
is different. Luckily Linux also has access to the MSR based
clocksource. We can just disable the TSC page clocksource if Linux is
the root partition.
