---I would like to apply this patch but the changelog is too short (one line). Please add a small paragraph (no need to resend just answer here, I will amend the log myself.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.
