This is the intended behavior.  The HosySystem class is just a 
placeholder - if the guest has the SBLIM providers installed, then the 
proper class to represent the host is Linux_ComputerSystem (this is the 
SBLIM provider that represents the "base" or host system).

We don't want the HostSystem provider to return anything in this case, 
because there's no need for a placeholder.
