mainlining shenanigans
As a preparation to making Hyper-V TSC page suitable for vDSO move the TSC page reading logic to asm/mshyperv.h. While on it, do the following: - Document the reading algorithm. - Simplify the code a bit. - Add explicit READ_ONCE() to not rely on 'volatile'. - Add explicit barriers to prevent re-ordering (we need to read sequence strictly before and after) - Use mul_u64_u64_shr() instead of assembly, gcc generates a single 'mul' instruction on x86_64 anyway.

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.
