[PATCH] x86/vmware: Read tsc_khz only once - at boot time
From: Alexey Makhalov
Date: Thu Oct 20 2016 - 18:47:19 EST
Re-factor the vmware platform setup code to query the hypervisor for tsc
frequency only once during boot. Since the VMware hypervisor guarantees
constant TSC, calibrate_tsc now uses the saved value.
