* We check whether all boot CPUs have their TSC's synchronized,
* print a warning if not and turn off the TSC clock-source.
*
* The warp-check is point-to-point between two CPUs, the CPU
* initiating the bootup is the 'source CPU', the freshly booting
* CPU is the 'target CPU'.
*
* Only two CPUs may participate - they can enter in any order.
* ( The serial nature of the boot logic and the CPU hotplug lock
* protects against more than 2 CPUs entering this code. )
