Jan Stancek afa8b475c1 x86/timer: Force PIT initialization when !X86_FEATURE_ARAT 
KVM guests with commit c8c4076723 ("x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on
modern chipsets") applied to guest kernel have been observed to have
unusually higher CPU usage with symptoms of increase in vm exits for HLT
and MSW_WRITE (MSR_IA32_TSCDEADLINE).

This is caused by older QEMUs lacking support for X86_FEATURE_ARAT.  lapic
clock retains CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP and nohz stays inactive.  There's no
usable broadcast device either.

Do the PIT initialization if guest CPU lacks X86_FEATURE_ARAT.  On real
hardware it shouldn't matter as ARAT and DEADLINE come together.

Fixes: c8c4076723 ("x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on modern chipsets")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
