It might be nice to preserve some of the information tglx dug out during
review of all this. Like the various methods of calibrate_*() and their
dependencies.
And I note that this patch relies on the magic of native_calibrate_cpu()
working really early and not exploding in the quick calibration run.
This either wants fixing or documenting.
I think the initial idea was to only do the fast_calibrate (cpuid, msr
and possibly the quick_pit) things early and delay the HPET/PMTIMER
magic until later.
