[PATCH] Time: i386 Conversion - part 2: Rework TSC Support
As part of the i386 conversion to the generic timekeeping infrastructure, this introduces a new tsc.c file. The code in this file replaces the TSC initialization, management and access code currently in timer_tsc.c (which will be removed) that we want to preserve. The code also introduces the following functionality: o tsc_khz: like cpu_khz but stores the TSC frequency on systems that do not change TSC frequency w/ CPU frequency o check/mark_tsc_unstable: accessor/modifier flag for TSC timekeeping usability o minor cleanups to calibration math. This patch also includes a one line __cpuinitdata fix from Zwane Mwaikambo.
