[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 125/128] kvm: x86: only channel 0 of the i8254 is linked to the HPET

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Sun Jan 24 2016 - 17:08:10 EST


3.16.7-ckt23 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit e5e57e7a03b1cdcb98e4aed135def2a08cbf3257 upstream.

While setting the KVM PIT counters in 'kvm_pit_load_count', if
'hpet_legacy_start' is set, the function disables the timer on
channel[0], instead of the respective index 'channel'. This is
because channels 1-3 are not linked to the HPET. Fix the caller
to only activate the special HPET processing for channel 0.
