You are quoting the part about the tsc test, did you try and run it?

The tsc is a clocksource. If the tsc is based on a free running counter,
what should be accessed in user-space is the free running counter.
The counter which value changes at 27MHz.
The aim is to have an idea of the current time by reading this register.
I do not know how to explain this in any other way.

The tsc emulation code does not give a damn about any base address. It
simply needs the address of the counter. Nothing else, nothing more.

If the registers are already ioremapped, please do not remap them a
second time. Also, if the tsc emulation was running correctly in
kernel-space, chances are the kernel-space virtual address was already
correct.

And please keep the mailing list in copy.
