It might be nice to preserve some of the information tglx dug out during review of all this. Like the various methods of calibrate_*() and their dependencies. And I note that this patch relies on the magic of native_calibrate_cpu() working really early and not exploding in the quick calibration run. This either wants fixing or documenting. I think the initial idea was to only do the fast_calibrate (cpuid, msr and possibly the quick_pit) things early and delay the HPET/PMTIMER magic until later. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-s390" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
