From 8fd65bce6a0966ab0fdfae10114be9846a37e993 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Subject: [PATCH 212/323] x86: kvm Require const tsc for RT
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.10/older/patches-5.10.215-rt107.tar.xz
Non constant TSC is a nightmare on bare metal already, but with
virtualization it becomes a complete disaster because the workarounds
are horrible latency wise. That's also a preliminary for running RT in
a guest on top of a RT host.
