x86, tsc: Fallback to normal calibration if fast MSR calibration fails

If we cannot calibrate TSC via MSR based calibration
try_msr_calibrate_tsc() stores zero to fast_calibrate and returns that
to the caller. This value gets then propagated further to clockevents
code resulting division by zero oops like the one below:

Prevent this from happening by:
 1) Modifying try_msr_calibrate_tsc() to return calibration value or zero
    if it fails.
 2) Check this return value in native_calibrate_tsc() and in case of zero
    fallback to use normal non-MSR based calibration.
