thanks David!

btw., this has the CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK changes from Peter
which should improve things on Niagara2. Note that cpu_clock() still has
sync overhead - this will simply go away, once we are reasonably sure
about the current sched_clock() code on x86. Those bits still need more
testing.
