[PATCH v3] x86/acrn: Set X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ

From: Fei Li
Date: Tue Nov 29 2022 - 04:31:13 EST


Using hypervisor-provided TSC frequency is common practice for guests.
However, for a Linux guest, it may still to reclibrate the ACRN-specific
TSC frequency if X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ flag is not set.

When TSC frequency is known (retrieved from ACRN hypervisor), skip TSC
refined calibration by setting X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ.

Also remove `inline` for acrn_get_tsc_khz() since it doesn't make sense.
