[PATCH v2] x86/tsc: print some log if calibrated tsc freq deviates from original too much

From: Lei Chen
Date: Sun Apr 14 2024 - 23:00:36 EST


In most cases, tsc_khz is refined by hpet on boot. But in a few
production-level nodes, the refinement fails because calibrated
freq diviates from origin tsc freq more than 1%. Printing some
logs will help get this info.
