Subject: [PATCH] [12/48] x86: Log reason why TSC was marked unstable
From: john stultz <johnstul@...ibm.com>
Change mark_tsc_unstable() so it takes a string argument, which holds the
reason the TSC was marked unstable.
This is then displayed the first time mark_tsc_unstable is called.
This should help us better debug why the TSC was marked unstable on certain
systems and allow us to make sure we're not being overly paranoid when
throwing out this troublesome clocksource.
