+/* Accellerators for sched_clock()
+ * convert from cycles(64bits) => nanoseconds (64bits)
+ * basic equation:
+ * ns = cycles / (freq / ns_per_sec)
+ * ns = cycles * (ns_per_sec / freq)
+ * ns = cycles * (10^9 / (cpu_khz * 10^3))
+ * ns = cycles * (10^6 / cpu_khz)
+ *
+ * Then we use scaling math (suggested by george@mvista.com) to get:
+ * ns = cycles * (10^6 * SC / cpu_khz) / SC
+ * ns = cycles * cyc2ns_scale / SC
+ *
+ * And since SC is a constant power of two, we can convert the div
+ * into a shift.
+ *
+ * We can use khz divisor instead of mhz to keep a better percision, since
+ * cyc2ns_scale is limited to 10^6 * 2^10, which fits in 32 bits.
