[PATCH 0/3] x86: TSC_DEADLINE vs TSC_ADJUST and microcode revisions

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Wed May 31 2017 - 11:56:37 EST


Hi all,

These patches rely on the latest microcode data files from Intel [*]

Without this microcode loaded, we'll print a FW_BUG informing the user to
update their microcode image and disable TSC_DEADLINE support.

This in turn allows us to remove the TSC_ADJUST workarounds which were required
due to errata.
