Peter, Huang

I have finally bisected this again.

7bd867dfb4e0357e06a3211ab2bd0e714110def3 is the first bad commit
commit 7bd867dfb4e0357e06a3211ab2bd0e714110def3
Author: Feng Tang <feng.tang@xxxxxxxxx>

   x86: Move get/set_wallclock to x86_platform_ops
  
   get/set_wallclock() have already a set of platform dependent
   implementations (default, EFI, paravirt). MRST will add another
   variant.
  
   Moving them to platform ops simplifies the existing code and minimizes
   the effort to integrate new variants.

I have also attached the bisect log along with this. I hope this helps, 
and apologise for the issues before as im still new to git.
