help
Specify the maximum amount of allowable watchdog skew in
microseconds before reporting the clocksource to be unstable.
+ The default is based on a half-second clocksource watchdog
+ interval and NTP's maximum frequency drift of 500 parts
+ per million. If the clocksource is good enough for NTP,
+ it is good enough for the clocksource watchdog!
