Do not expect SIMtrace2 to work in VMs
--------------------------------------
We only support running SIMtrace2 together with a Linux system running
"bare iron" on actual hardware (x86, x86_64, arm, ...). **using VMs
with USB pass-through for things with critical timing like SIMtrace2 is
calling for trouble** and we will not accept related bug reports or
support you if you do. If you still want to use VMs: Feel free to do
so, but understand that it's unsupported and you are on your own.
