    sysutils/kvmclock-kmod: new port - call for testing

    Improved performance on KVM paravirtualised systems. Testing
    welcomed; please report successes and issues to:

    https://reviews.freebsd.org/D29733

    kvmclock-kmod is experimental and currently under development. This port
    provides an easy and quick method for users to test this code for early
    testing, feedback and bug reports.

    This driver enables FreeBSD to use a more efficient paravirtualized
    hardware clock, instead of emulating one, or abusing hypervisor
    interrupts, when running as a virtualized OS under Linux KVM
    (Kernel-based Virtual Machine).
