[PATCH] x86_64: Make udelay more accurate 

The attempt to avoid overflow in __delay caused varying precision
on different CPUs depending on differences in the CPU speed.

We should be able to do this multiplication with out overflowing
provided the
cpu is running at less than about 128 GHz.  xloops < 20000 * 0x10c6.
loops_per_jiffy * HZ <= cpu_clock_speed.  So if the cpu clock speed
< 2^64/(20000 * 0x10c6) = 2^64/ 51E6CC0 < 2^64/2^27 = 2^37 = 128G we
will not overflow the calculation.
