Ladi Prosek a826faf108 KVM: x86: make backwards_tsc_observed a per-VM variable
The backwards_tsc_observed global introduced in commit 16a9602 is never
reset to false. If a VM happens to be running while the host is suspended
(a common source of the TSC jumping backwards), master clock will never
be enabled again for any VM. In contrast, if no VM is running while the
host is suspended, master clock is unaffected. This is inconsistent and
unnecessarily strict. Let's track the backwards_tsc_observed variable
separately and let each VM start with a clean slate.

Real world impact: My Windows VMs get slower after my laptop undergoes a
suspend/resume cycle. The only way to get the perf back is unloading and
reloading the kvm module.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
