Subject: [PATCH v2 3/7] MIPS: csrc-r4k: Select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK if
 SMP && 64BIT

csrc-r4k suffers from SMP synchronization overhead.

Select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK to workaround drift
between the CPUs on the system. HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK
requires cmpxchg64, so enable it for 64 bits only.

v2: Depends on SMP as well
