x86/tsc: Avoid the large time jump when sanitizing TSC ADJUST
Olof reported that on a machine which has a BIOS wreckaged TSC the
timestamps in dmesg are making a large jump because the TSC value is
jumping forward after resetting the TSC ADJUST register to a sane value.
This can be avoided by calling the TSC ADJUST saniziting function before
initializing the per cpu sched clock machinery. That takes the offset into
account and avoid the time jump.
What cannot be avoided is that the 'Firmware Bug' warnings on the secondary
CPUs are printed with the large time offsets because it would be too much
effort and ugly hackery to print those warnings into a buffer and emit them
after the adjustemt on the starting CPUs. It's a firmware bug and should be
fixed in firmware. The weird timestamps are collateral damage and just
illustrate the sillyness of the BIOS folks:
