    x86, vmware: Preset lpj values when on VMware. · 9f242dc1
    Alok Kataria authored
    When running on VMware's platform, we have seen situations where
    the AP's try to calibrate the lpj values and fail to get good calibration
    runs becasue of timing issues. As a result delays don't work correctly
    on all cpus.
    
    The solutions is to set preset_lpj value based on the current tsc frequency
    value. This is similar to what KVM does as well.
