Prior to commit 95492e4646 ([PATCH] x86:
rewrite SMP TSC sync code), the headers in asm-i386 did not really require
anything in include/asm-x86_64. This means that distributions such as
fedora did not include asm-x86_64 in kernel-devel headers for i386. Ingo's
commit changed that, and broke things. This is easy enough to hack around
in package builds by just including asm-x86_64 on i386, but that's kind of
annoying. If anything, x86_64 should depend upon i386, not the other way
around.
This patch changes it so that asm-x86_64/tsc.h includes asm-i386/tsc.h,
rather than vice-versa.

make the TSC synchronization code more robust, and unify it between x86_64 and
i386.
The biggest change is the removal of the 'fix up TSCs' code on x86_64 and
i386, in some rare cases it was /causing/ time-warps on SMP systems.
The new code only checks for TSC asynchronity - and if it can prove a
time-warp (if it can observe the TSC going backwards when going from one CPU
to another within a critical section), then the TSC clock-source is turned
off.
The TSC synchronization-checking code also got moved into a separate file.

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.
