Linux currently has a problem with TSC synch when used in an SMP box with
different speed CPUs.

The solution to this problem is fairly simple... essentially, disable the use
of TSC when this has been determined.

I am going to *attempt* to write a patch to do this, based almost entirely on
the work done by others on this mailing list.  However, my kernel hacking
skills are almost completely nonexistant.

So if someone else feels the urge to write this patch, that would be WONDERFUL,
please let me know so I don't waste my time.  I can even send you some code
that might help you along.
