Just passing a string to mark_tsc_unstable() doesn't allow real code to change
based on the reason for the instablility. I changed mark_tsc_unstable()
to accept a string and a flag which denotes a general reason why the tsc
is unstable, and can be evaluated in code.

I still think that's the wrong way to do this. If there is any
special action that should be done on particular unstable events
it should call a separate function or an addon function.
First putting it all together and then try to distingush it again
doesn't seem nice.

Off list John indicated a different way of doing this, which is in the
patch below. This seems similar to what your describing above.. I'm fine
with this method although I think this is a little confusing cause
mark_tsc_sched_clock_unstable() also makes it unstable for gettimeofday.
Which isn't totally clear just by looking at the functions.. (It's also
a super long function name..)
Any comments?

Subject: non-string based tsc unstable reasons
Just passing a string to mark_tsc_unstable() doesn't allow real code to change
based on the reason for the instablility. I changed mark_tsc_unstable()
to accept a string and a flag which denotes a general reason why the tsc
is unstable, and can be evaluated in code.
