From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> KVM does make an attempt to cope with non-constant TSC, and has notifiers to handle host TSC frequency changes. However, it *only* adjusts the KVM clock, and doesn't adjust TSC frequency scaling when the host changes. This is presumably because non-constant TSCs were fixed in hardware long before TSC scaling was implemented, so there should never be real CPUs which have TSC scaling but *not* CONSTANT_TSC. Such a combination could potentially happen in some odd L1 nesting environment, but it isn't worth trying to support it. Just make the dependency explicit.
