x86: use standard PIT frequency
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
the RDC and ELAN platforms use slighly different PIT clocks, resulting in
a timex.h hack that changes PIT_TICK_RATE during build time. But if a
tester enables any of these platform support .config options, the PIT
will be miscalibrated on standard PC platforms.

So use one frequency - in a subsequent patch we'll add a quirk to allow
x86 platforms to define different PIT frequencies.
