x86: scale cyc_2_nsec according to CPU frequency
scale the sched_clock() cyc_2_nsec scaling factor according to CPU frequency changes. [ mingo@elte.hu: simplified it and fixed it for SMP. ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

+/* Accelerators 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 precision, since
+ * cyc2ns_scale is limited to 10^6 * 2^10, which fits in 32 bits.
