Implement the MIPS GET_CLOCK_FREQ hypercall used by paravirtual guest
kernels. When the guest performs this hypercall, the value of count_hz
is returned, which is the current rate of the CP0_Count register.
We also document the hypercall along with the others as the
documentation was never added.

Another vcpu of the

specifying APIC ID (a1) of the vcpu to be woken up. An additional argument (a0)
is used in the hypercall for future use.
