59f5a03af6 Rewrite of the virtual timer code to support both modes at the same timer.
The timers now have a new member 'realtime' and they are driven by the
selected engine. The VGA update timer and the status LED timer now always use
the realtime mode, but the PIT and CMOS RTC depend on the clock options.

d012670927 Applied the usb_xhci part of the USB patch by Ben Lunt.
Notes by Ben:
This emulates a NEC/Renesas uPD720202 2-port (2 socket, 4-port register sets)
Root Hub xHCI Host Controller.
Many, many thanks to Renesas for their work and effort in helping my research.

I have tested in with my own tests and WinXP Home Edition SP3.

Use port1 and port2 to emulate a Super-speed device, and use port3 and port4
to emulate Low-, Full-, or High-speed devices.

NOTE: The Windows driver for this device uses a proprietary detection
mechanism and we don't have the permission to implement it. That's why it only
works fine with non-Windows guests.
