Andrew Morton 35d5d08a08 x86: disable preemption in delay_tsc()
Marin Mitov points out that delay_tsc() can misbehave if it is preempted and
rescheduled on a different CPU which has a skewed TSC.  Fix it by disabling
preemption.

(I assume that the worst-case behaviour here is a stall of 2^32 cycles)
