Subject: [PATCH 1/1] virt: vmgenid: Recognize new CID added by Hyper-V

In the Windows spec for VM Generation ID, the originally
specified CID is longer than allowed by the ACPI spec.
Hyper-V has added "VMGENCTR" as a second valid CID
that is conformant, while retaining the original CID
for compatibility with Windows guests.

Add this new CID to the list recognized by the driver.
