-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. --------------------- From: Thomas Gleixner upstream commit: b6db80ee1331e7beaeb91b4b3d946dd16c72e388 When the TSC is calibrated against the PIT due to the nonavailability of PMTIMER/HPET or due to SMI interference then the setup of the per CPU cyc2ns variables is skipped. This is unlikely to happen but it would definitely render sched_clock() unusable. This was introduced with commit 53d517cdbaac704352b3d0c10fecb99e0b54572e x86: scale cyc_2_nsec according to CPU frequency Update the per CPU cyc2ns variables in all exit pathes of tsc_calibrate.
