[ Upstream commit e10f7805032365cc11c739a97f226ebb48aee042 ] Inside a nested guest, access to hardware can be slow enough that tsc_read_refs always return ULLONG_MAX, causing tsc_refine_calibration_work to be called periodically and the nested guest to spend a lot of time reading the ACPI timer. However, if the TSC frequency is available from the pvclock page, we can just set X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ and avoid the recalibration. 'refine' operation.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
