One reason - consistency with kernels running on the *same* hardware
prior to commit d0a533b18235d362 (ARM: 7452/1: delay: allow
timer-based delay implementation to be selected). You may see BogoMIPS
of 800 prior to that commit dropping to 6 after that commit on the
*same* piece of hardware. If we don't break any user assumptions here,
no further changes needed.
