Prev: [PATCH 6/6] don't compute pvclock adjustments if we trust the tsc
Next: [PATCH 2/6] Add a global synchronization point for pvclock
From: Glauber Costa on 26 Apr 2010 14:00
We now added a new set of clock-related msrs in replacement of the old
ones. In theory, we could just try to use them and get a return value
indicating they do not exist, due to our use of kvm_write_msr_save.

However, kvm clock registration happens very early, and if we ever
try to write to a non-existant MSR, we raise a lethal #GP, since our
idt handlers are not in place yet.

So this patch tests for a cpuid feature exported by the host to
decide which set of msrs are supported.
