[PATCH] Calling check_system_tsc_reliable before unsynchronized_tsc

From: Zhenzhong Duan
Date: Thu Jun 08 2017 - 07:43:19 EST


unsynchronized_tsc() checks value of tsc_clocksource_reliable which is set by
check_system_tsc_reliable(). It's better to move check_system_tsc_reliable() at
front, or else this check makes no sense.

Though X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC is usually set for TSC reliable system, just in
case.
