[linux-yocto] [PATCH 2/2] x86 tsc: enumerate BXT tsc_khz via CPUID

From: Len Brown <len.brown at intel.com>

Hard code the BXT crystal clock (aka ART - Always Running Timer)
to 19.200 MHz, and use CPUID leaf 0x15 to determine the BXT TSC frequency.

Use tsc_khz to sanity check BXT cpu_khz,
which can be erroneous in some configurations.
