Please don't apply this to your tree. It is dependent on a previous
patch. I expect this series to go through the hyperv tree.

I will add in this small paragraph in a later version:

    When Linux runs as the root partition, the setup required for TSC page
    is different. Luckily Linux also has access to the MSR based
    clocksource. We can just disable the TSC page clocksource if Linux is
    the root partition.

If you're happy with the description, I would love to have an ack from
you. I will funnel the patch via the hyperv tree.

Wei.
