changelog
---------
v15 - v14
	Repo: https://github.com/soleen/time_15.git
	- dropped "x86/kvmclock: Avoid TSC recalibration" as Paolo Bonzini
	  suggested
	- Fixed in "sched: early boot clock" whenched_clock_running is set,
	   and moved __sched_clock_gtod_offset inside IRQ as Peter noticed.
	- Addressed comments from Dou Liyang: added missing __inits, and
	  X86_FEATURE_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER, spelling.
	- Fixed xen_sched_clock_offset on xen hvm (noticed by Boris
	  Ostrovsky).
	- Added two patches to address Peter Zijlstra's request to split
	  native cpu calibration into early and late parts. The patches
	  are:
	  x86/tsc:  split native_calibrate_cpu() into early and late parts
	  x86/tsc:  use tsc_calibrate_cpu_early and
	    pit_hpet_ptimer_calibrate_cpu

v14 - v13
	- Included Thomas' KVM clock series, addressed comments from
	  reviewers.
	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180706161307.733337643@linutronix.de
	- Fixed xen hvm panic reported by Boris
	- Fixed build issue on microblaze

v13 - v12
	- Addressed comments from Thomas Gleixner.
	- Addressed comments from Peter Zijlstra.
	- Added a patch from Borislav Petkov
	- Added a new patch: sched: use static key for sched_clock_running
	- Added xen pv fixes, so clock is initialized when other
	  hypervisors initialize their clocks.
	Note: I am including kvm/x86: remove kvm memblock dependency, which
	is part of this series:
	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180706161307.733337643@linutronix.de
	Because without this patch it is not possible to test this series on
	KVM.

v12 - v11
	- split time: replace read_boot_clock64() with
	  read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset() into four patches
	- Added two patches one fixes an existing bug with text_poke()
	  another one enables static branches early. Note, because I found
	  and fixed the text_poke() bug, enabling static branching became
	  super easy, as no changes to jump_label* is needed.
	- Modified x86/tsc: use tsc early to use static branches early, and
	  thus native_sched_clock() is not changed at all.
v11 - v10
	- Addressed all the comments from Thomas Gleixner.
	- I added one more patch:
	  "x86/tsc: prepare for early sched_clock" which fixes a problem
	  that I discovered while testing. I am not particularly happy with
	  the fix, as it adds a new argument that is used only in one
	  place, but if you have a suggestion for a different approach on
	  how to address this problem please let me know.

v10 - v9
	- Added another patch to this series that removes dependency
	  between KVM clock, and memblock allocator. The benefit is that
	  all clocks can now be initialized even earlier.
v9 - v8
	- Addressed more comments from Dou Liyang

v8 - v7
	- Addressed comments from Dou Liyang:
	- Moved tsc_early_init() and tsc_early_fini() to be all inside
	  tsc.c, and changed them to be static.
	- Removed warning when notsc parameter is used.
	- Merged with:
	  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git

v7 - v6
	- Removed tsc_disabled flag, now notsc is equivalent of
	  tsc=unstable
	- Simplified changes to sched/clock.c, by removing the
	  sched_clock_early() and friends as requested by Peter Zijlstra.
	  We know always use sched_clock()
	- Modified x86 sched_clock() to return either early boot time or
	  regular.
	- Added another example why ealry boot time is important

v5 - v6
	- Added a new patch:
		time: sync read_boot_clock64() with persistent clock
	  Which fixes missing __init macro, and enabled time discrepancy
	  fix that was noted by Thomas Gleixner
	- Split "x86/time: read_boot_clock64() implementation" into a
	  separate patch

v4 - v5
	- Fix compiler warnings on systems with stable clocks.

v3 - v4
	- Fixed tsc_early_fini() call to be in the 2nd patch as reported
	  by Dou Liyang
	- Improved comment before __use_sched_clock_early to explain why
	  we need both booleans.
	- Simplified valid_clock logic in read_boot_clock64().

v2 - v3
	- Addressed comment from Thomas Gleixner
	- Timestamps are available a little later in boot but still much
	  earlier than in mainline. This significantly simplified this
	  work.

v1 - v2
	In patch "x86/tsc: tsc early":
	- added tsc_adjusted_early()
	- fixed 32-bit compile error use do_div()

The early boot time stamps were discussed recently in these threads:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1527672059-6225-1-git-send-email-feng.tang@intel.com
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1527672059-6225-2-git-send-email-feng.tang@intel.com

I updated my series to the latest mainline and sending it again.

Peter mentioned he did not like patch 6,7, and we can discuss for a better
way to do that, but I think patches 1-5 can be accepted separetly, since
they already enable early timestamps on platforms where sched_clock() is
available early. Such as KVM.

Adding early boot time stamps support for x86 machines.
SPARC patches for early boot time stamps are already integrated into
mainline linux.

Sample output
-------------
Before:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/26133428/

After:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/26133523/

For exaples how early time stamps are used, see this work:
Example 1:
https://lwn.net/Articles/734374/
- Without early boot time stamps we would not know about the extra time
  that is spent zeroing struct pages early in boot even when deferred
  page initialization.

Example 2:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10021247/
- If early boot timestamps were available, the engineer who introduced
  this bug would have noticed the extra time that is spent early in boot.
