Lots of functions for dubious value.

This whole function maze plus the ifdeffery which comes with it is really
horrible and not required. What's wrong with reusing the existing
functionality?

The patch below (uncompiled and untested) should achieve the same thing
without all the paravirt muck (which can be easily added w/o all the
ifdeffery if really required) by just reusing the existing conversion and
initialization functions.

If I'm not completely mistaken then the second invocation of
set_cyc2ns_scale() from tsc_init() will also take care of the smooth
sched_clock() transition from early to final w/o touching the core
__sched_clock_offset at all. Though my tired brain might trick me.

It might not work as is, but it should not be rocket science to make it do
so.

Thanks,

	tglx
