Subject[patch 19/49] x86: dont use tsc_khz to calculate lpj if notsc is passed
2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Alok Kataria <akataria@vmware.com>

commit 70de9a97049e0ba79dc040868564408d5ce697f9 upstream

Impact: fix udelay when "notsc" boot parameter is passed

With notsc passed on commandline, tsc may not be used for
udelays, make sure that we do not use tsc_khz to calculate
the lpj value in such cases.
