IA64: Turn on CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_CLOCK
commit 0773a6cf673316440999752e23f8c3d4f85e48b9 upstream. sched_clock() on ia64 is based on ar.itc, so is never completely synchronized between cpus. On some platforms (e.g. certain models of SGI Altix) it may be running at radically different frequencies. Based on a patch from Dimitri Sivanich which set this just for SN2 && GENERIC kernels ... it is needed for all ia64 machines.
