There are problems with weak in general and link time optimizations -
weak is implemented as a C compiler extension. There have been
patches/threads in the past about avoiding it. In this case it'd be
easy to get two arch_get_tsc_freq defined or none. Without weak these
are both linker errors. With weak your mileage varies.
