   6  * We check whether all boot CPUs have their TSC's synchronized,
   7  * print a warning if not and turn off the TSC clock-source.
   8  *
   9  * The warp-check is point-to-point between two CPUs, the CPU
  10  * initiating the bootup is the 'source CPU', the freshly booting
  11  * CPU is the 'target CPU'.
  12  *
  13  * Only two CPUs may participate - they can enter in any order.
  14  * ( The serial nature of the boot logic and the CPU hotplug lock
  15  *   protects against more than 2 CPUs entering this code. )
