Subhransu reported that convert_art_to_tsc() isn't working for him.
It turns out that because of commit:
57779dc2b3b7 ("x86, tsc: Skip refined tsc calibration on systems with reliable TSC")
Systems with TSC_KNOWN_FREQ (due to having CPUID.15h) will not run the
refined calibration thing, and then forget to set the ART clocksource
relation.
We cannot set the ART relation prior to running the refined calibration;
therefore duplicate the lines.
XXX: should we clear this in mark_tsc_unstable() ?

x86/tsc: Fix ART for TSC_KNOWN_FREQ
Subhransu reported that convert_art_to_tsc() isn't working for him.
The ART to TSC relation is only set up for systems which use the refined
TSC calibration. Systems with known TSC frequency (available via CPUID 15)
are not using the refined calibration and therefor the ART to TSC relation
is never established.
Add the setup to the known frequency init path which skips ART
calibration. The init code needs to be duplicated as for systems which use
refined calibration the ART setup must be delayed until calibration has
been done.
The problem has been there since the ART support was introdduced, but only
detected now because Subhransu tested the first time on hardware which has
TSC frequency enumerated via CPUID 15.
Note for stable: The conditional has changed from TSC_RELIABLE to
TSC_KNOWN_FREQUENCY.
[ tglx: Rewrote changelog and identified the proper 'Fixes' commit ]

That's the wrong culprit. The problem was introduced with the ART support
patches. I fixed the changelog up.

It's already handled. get_device_system_timestamp() which convert ART to
clock monotonic checks whether the timekeeper clocksource is the same as
the correlated ART clocksource, i.e. TSC. So when timekeeping switches away
from TSC get_device_system_timestamp() returns -ENODEV.
Thanks,

Right; thanks for untangling that history.

Ah right. Couldn't find that in a hurry.
