x86: merge sched_clock handling
Move the basic global variable definitions and sched_clock handling in the
common "tsc.c" file.
- Unify notsc kernel command line handling for 32 bit and 64bit.
- Functional changes for 64bit.
- "tsc_disabled" is updated if "notsc" is passed at boottime.
- Fallback to jiffies for sched_clock, incase notsc is passed on
commandline.
