Subject: [GIT PULL] x86/hyperv changes for v4.13

Linus,

Please pull the latest x86-hyperv-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-hyperv-for-linus

   # HEAD: 71c2a2d0a81f096a2932fccb39a500116fece554 x86/hyperv: Read TSC frequency from a synthetic MSR

Avoid boot time TSC calibration on Hyper-V hosts, to improve calibration 
robustness. (Vitaly Kuznetsov)

 Thanks,

	Ingo
