This takes out the code that arranges to run two (or more) virtual cores on a single subcore when possible, that is, when both vcores are from the same VM, the VM is configured with one CPU thread per virtual core, and all the per-subcore registers have the same value in each vcore. Since the VTB (virtual timebase) is a per-subcore register, and will almost always differ between vcores, this code is disabled on POWER8 machines, meaning that it is only usable on POWER7 machines (which don't have VTB). Given the tiny number of POWER7 machines which have firmware that allows them to run HV KVM, the benefit of simplifying the code outweighs the loss of this feature on POWER7 machines.
