How does this patch look ?

Add apic calibration hook.

From: Alok N Kataria <akataria@...are.com>

Add a new function ptr calibrate_apic to x86_init_ops structure. On native this
does the usual apic calibration. On VMware's platform we override it with a
routine which gets that information from the hypervisor.
