Since (non-pvops, 32-bit only up to 2.6.27) Linux would report "BAD" unconditionally on all SiS chipset versions (it only looks for a PCI device at 0000:00:00.0 with SiS as the vendor), we must not crash if the report on a 64-bit hypervisor doesn't match the #define (which is zero). While we could honor the quirk indication even on 64-bit, it doesn't seem worthwhile, as there's no evidence that newer SiS chipsets (supporting 64-bit CPUs) are actually affected. This should also address bug 1687 (mis-reported, however, afaict).
