Vitaly Kuznetsov 0092e4346f x86/kvm: Support Hyper-V reenlightenment
When running nested KVM on Hyper-V guests its required to update
masterclocks for all guests when L1 migrates to a host with different TSC
frequency.

Implement the procedure in the following way:
  - Pause all guests.
  - Tell the host (Hyper-V) to stop emulating TSC accesses.
  - Update the gtod copy, recompute clocks.
  - Unpause all guests.

This is somewhat similar to cpufreq but there are two important differences:
 - TSC emulation can only be disabled globally (on all CPUs)
 - The new TSC frequency is not known until emulation is turned off so
   there is no way to 'prepare' for the event upfront.

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.
