Subject[PATCH v12 11/11] x86/tsc: use tsc early
Date
We want to get timestamps and high resultion clock available to us as early
as possible in boot. But, native_sched_clock() outputs time based either on
tsc after tsc_init() is called later in boot, or using jiffies when clock
interrupts are enabled, which is also happens later in boot.

On the other hand, we know tsc frequency from as early as when
tsc_early_delay_calibrate() is called. So, we use the early tsc calibration
to output timestamps early. Later in boot when tsc_init() is called we
calibrate tsc again using more precise methods, and start using that.

Since sched_clock() is in a hot path, we want to make sure that no
regressions are introduced to this function, with the current approach
sched_clock() path is not modified at all.
