Without TSC_KNOWN_FREQ the TSC clocksource is registered so late that the kernel first switches to the HPET. Using HPET on large CPU count machines is undesirable. Therefore register a tsc-early clocksource using the preliminary tsc_khz from quick calibration. Then when the final TSC calibration is done, it can switch to the tuned frequency. The only notably problem is that the real tsc clocksource must be marked with CLOCK_SOURCE_VALID_FOR_HRES, otherwise it will not be selected when unregistering tsc-early. tsc-early cannot be left registered, because then the clocksource code would fall back to it when we tsc clocksource is marked unstable later.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
