x86: reduce clock calibration time during slave cpu startup
Reduce the startup time for slave cpus.
Adds hooks for an arch-specific function for clock calibration. These
hooks are used on x86. If a newly started cpu has the same phys_proc_id
as a core already active, uses the TSC for the delay loop and has a
CONSTANT_TSC, use the already-calculated value of loops_per_jiffy.
This patch reduces the time required to start slave cpus on a 4096 cpu
system from: 465 sec OLD 62 sec NEW
This reduces boot time on a 4096p system by almost 7 minutes. Nice...
