[PATCH] ppc32: improve timebase sync for SMP
Currently the procedure in the ppc32 kernel that synchronizes the timebase
registers across an SMP powermac system does so by setting both timebases
to zero. That is OK at boot but causes problems if done later. So that we
can do hotplug CPU on these machines, this patch changes the code so it
reads the timebase from one CPU and transfers the value to the other CPU.
(Hotplug CPU is needed for sleep (aka suspend to RAM) to work.)
