109  * bootup can fail due to a marginal offset between vcpus' TSCs (though the

111  * is not suitable as a watchdog when running on a hypervisor because the
112  * kernel may miss a wrap of the counter if the vcpu is descheduled for a
113  * long time. To skip these checks at runtime we set these capability bits,
114  * so that the kernel could just trust the hypervisor with providing a
115  * reliable virtual TSC that is suitable for timekeeping.
