4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Len Brown <[email protected]> commit d9e6dbcf28f383bf08e6a3180972f5722e514a54 upstream. All SKX with stepping higher than 4 support the TSC_DEADLINE, no matter the microcode version. Without this patch, upcoming SKX steppings will not be able to use their TSC_DEADLINE timer.
