Guys, please. 

Show some _taste_.

Dammit, stop adding random crap to "native_calibrate_tsc()" and make it 
look like total and utter SHIT.

If you want to do that

	tsc1 = tsc_read_refs(&ref1, hpet);
	..
	tsc2 = tsc_read_refs(&ref1, hpet);

around calibration and comparing it, then do it *once*. Do it over the 
whole thing. Do it in a function of its own, instead of making this 
horrible and unreadable mess.

This patch may be fine as a "let's check if it works" thing, but please 
don't send out total SH*T to public lists.

Some _tasted_ in programming, please!
