commit 1ada5cba6a0318f90e45b38557e7b5206a9cba38
Author: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxx>

    clocksource: make clocksource watchdog cycle through online CPUs
    
    This way it checks if the clocks are synchronized between CPUs too.
    This might be able to detect slowly drifting TSCs which only
    go wrong over longer time.
