init/calibrate.c: fix for critical bogoMIPS intermittent calculation failure
init/calibrate.c: fix for critical bogoMIPS intermittent calculation failure

A fix to the TSC (Time Stamp Counter) based bogoMIPS calculation used on
secondary CPUs which has two faults:

1: Not handling wrapping of the lower 32 bits of the TSC counter on
   32bit kernel - perhaps TSC is not reset by a warm reset?

2: TSC and Jiffies are no incrementing together properly.  Either
   jiffies increment too quickly or Time Stamp Counter isn't incremented
   in during an SMI but the real time clock is and jiffies are
   incremented.

Case 1 can result in a factor of 16 too large a value which makes udelay()
values too small and can cause mysterious driver errors.  Case 2 appears
to give smaller 10-15% errors after averaging but enough to cause
occasional failures on my own board

I have tested this code on my own branch and attach patch suitable for
current kernel code.  See below for examples of the failures and how the
fix handles these situations now.

I reported this issue earlier here:
     Intermittent problem with BogoMIPs calculation on Intel AP CPUs -
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=129947246316875&w=4

I suspect this issue has been seen by others but as it is intermittent and
bogoMIPS for secondary CPUs are no longer printed out it might have been
difficult to identify this as the cause.  Perhaps these unresolved issues,
although quite old, might be relevant as possibly this fault has been
around for a while.  In particular Case 1 may only be relevant to 32bit
kernels on newer HW (most people run 64bit kernels?).  Case 2 is less
dramatic since the earlier fix in this area and also intermittent.

This issue is masked a little by commit feae3203d711db0a ("timers, init:
Limit the number of per cpu calibration bootup messages") which only
prints out the first bogoMIPS value making it much harder to notice other
values differing.  Perhaps it should be changed to only suppress them when
they are similar values?

Here are some outputs showing faults occurring and the new code handling
them properly.  See my earlier message for examples of the original
failure.
