I've read that on recent CPUs, the TSC is unaffected by the actual clock
rate of the CPU.  On linux, The TSC gets calibrated and the
synchronisation is tested, which may result in the TSC clock source
being marked as unstable and disabled.  In this case, it will fall back
to using other clock sources (HPET is next in line on my computer).
