Subject: [PATCH v1 2/6] x86/tsc: Convert Time Stamp Counter (TSC) value to Always Running Timer (ART)

From: Lakshmi Sowjanya D <lakshmi.sowjanya.d@...el.com>

PPS generators trigger pulses according to system time/TSC.
Timed I/O hardware understands time in ART (Always Running Timer). There
is a need to convert TSC time to ART. The conversion is done using the
detected art_to_tsc_numerator and denominator.

ART = TSC * tsc_to_art_denominator / tsc_to_art_numerator
