[PATCH 7/7] HPET: simplify initialization message

[Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de>]

From: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de>

When booting, display the timer frequency in Hertz instead of as tick
length in nanoseconds.  Apart from saving a local variable, this makes
the message more easily comprehensible.
