[PATCH] x86, suspend: Save/restore THERM_CONTROL register for suspend

[Chen Yu]

A bug is reported(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1227208)
that, after resuming from S3, CPU is working at a low speed.
After investigation, it is found that, BIOS has modified the value
of THERM_CONTROL register during S3, changes it from 0 to 0x10,
while the latter means CPU can only get 25% of the Duty Cycle,
and this caused the problem.

Simple scenario to reproduce:
1.Boot up system
2.Get MSR with address 0x19a, it should output 0
3.Put system into sleep, then wake up
4.Get MSR with address 0x19a, it should output 0(actual it outputs 0x10)

Although this is a BIOS issue, it would be more robust for linux to deal
with this situation. This patch fixes this issue by saving/restoring
THERM_CONTROL(now called CLOCK_MODULATION) register on suspend/resume.
