b47dcbdc5161d3d5756f430191e2840d9b855492 upstream.
If the TSC is unusable or disabled, then this patch fixes:
- Confusion while trying to clear old APIC interrupts.
- Division by zero and incorrect programming of the TSC deadline
timer.
This fixes boot if the CPU has a TSC deadline timer but a missing or
broken TSC. The failure to boot can be observed with qemu using
-cpu qemu64,-tsc,+tsc-deadline
This also happens to me in nested KVM for unknown reasons.
With this patch, I can boot cleanly (although without a TSC).
