[PATCH V2 0/2] clocksource/Hyper-V: Add Hyper-V specific sched clock
From: lantianyu1986

From: Tianyu Lan <Tianyu.Lan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Hyper-V guests use the default native_sched_clock() in pv_ops.time.sched_clock
on x86. But native_sched_clock() directly uses the raw TSC value, which
can be discontinuous in a Hyper-V VM. Add the generic hv_setup_sched_clock()
to set the sched clock function appropriately. On x86, this sets
pv_ops.time.sched_clock to read the Hyper-V reference TSC value that is
scaled and adjusted to be continuous.
Also move the Hyper-V reference TSC initialization much earlier in the boot
process so no discontinuity is observed when pv_ops.time.sched_clock
calculates its offset. This earlier initialization requires that the Hyper-V TSC
page be allocated statically instead of with vmalloc(), so fixup the references
to the TSC page and the method of getting its physical address.
Change since v1:
- Update patch 1 commit log
- Remove and operation of tsc page's va with PAGE_MASK
in the read_hv_sched_clock_tsc().
