[PATCH] -rt fix TSC calibration from PM Timer

["Joachim Deguara" <joachim.deguara@amd.com>]

The code to calibrate TSC frequency from the PM timer does not work on my 
laptop with the 2.6.21-rt5.

[    0.247815] time.c: Detected 62117.606 MHz processor.

The code looks to be copied from the calibration from HPET but unfortunately 
it reports frequency instead of period in femtoseconds as the HPET does.  I 
also rearranged the math to make the femtoseconds and kHz clearer but it does 
loose a negligible amount of precision.
