[PATCH v2 0/3] x86/tsc: Remove some magic constants

[Petr Tesarik]

The TSC code is full of various magic constants, making it difficult to
understand the calculations. This patch series tries to document their
actual meaning.

No functional change intended, but the code is not bit-for-bit
identical; some 32-bit multiplications are converted into 64-bit
multiplications, because HZ_PER_KHZ is an unsigned long. If anything,
this should reduce the risk of arithmetic overflow.

Changes from v1:
- Use TICK_NSEC instead of (NSEC_PER_SEC / HZ)
- Use HZ_PER_KHZ and KHZ_PER_MHZ from <linux/units.h>

Petr Tesarik (3):
  x86/tsc: Replace magic constants with xxx_PER_SEC
  x86/tsc: Use HZ_PER_KHZ and KHZ_PER_MHZ
  x86/tsc: Use TSC_CALIBRATE_MULT for the TSC multiplier
