[PATCH v7 1/6] x86/tsc: remove tsc_disabled flag

[Pavel Tatashin]

tsc_disabled is set when notsc is passed as kernel parameter. The reason we
have notsc is to avoid timing problems on multi-preccors systems. However,
we already have a mechanism to detect and resolve these issues by invoking
tsc unstable path.
