Subject: [PATCH] Revert "x86/tsc: Consolidate init code"

From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@...ux.intel.com>

This reverts commit 608008a45798fe9e2aee04f99b5270ea57c1376f.

It breaks wifi on my pentium 3 Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook S6010
laptop. Scanning for APs doesn't seem to work most of the time,
and, even when it manages to find some APs it never manages to
authenticate successfully. dmesg is just littered with:
"wlan0: send auth to ... (try 1/3)
 wlan0: send auth to ... (try 2/3)
 wlan0: send auth to ... (try 3/3)
 wlan0: authentication with ... timed out"

Presumably also USB is broken on account of the following noise
in dmesg:
"usb usb2-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?".
