#1505309 — [PATCH] x86/vmware: Read tsc_khz only once - at boot time

FromAlexey Makhalov <amakhalov@vmware.com>

Subject[PATCH] x86/vmware: Read tsc_khz only once - at boot time
Message-ID<suujT-5ja-9@gated-at.bofh.it>
Re-factor the vmware platform setup code to query the hypervisor for tsc
frequency only once during boot. Since the VMware hypervisor guarantees
constant TSC, calibrate_tsc now uses the saved value.
