mainlining shenanigans
fc5db58539
Some Coffee Lake platforms have a skewed HPET timer once the SoCs entered PC10, which in consequence marks TSC as unstable because HPET is used as watchdog clocksource for TSC. Harry Pan tried to work around it in the clocksource watchdog code [1] thereby creating a circular dependency between HPET and TSC. This also ignores the fact, that HPET is not only unsuitable as watchdog clocksource on these systems, it becomes unusable in general. Disable HPET on affected platforms.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
