    x86: Print the hypervisor returned tsc_khz during boot · 6399c087
    Alok Kataria authored
    On an AMD-64 system the processor frequency that is printed during
    system boot, may be different than the tsc frequency that was
    returned by the hypervisor, due to the value returned from
    calibrate_cpu.
    
    For debugging timekeeping or other related issues it might be
    better to get the tsc_khz value returned by the hypervisor.
    
    The patch below now prints the tsc frequency that the VMware
    hypervisor returned.
