x86/asm/tsc: Add rdtscll() merge helper
Some in-flight code makes use of the old rdtscll() (now removed), provide a wrapper for a kernel cycle to smooth the transition to rdtsc(). ( We use the safest variant, rdtsc_ordered(), which has barriers - this adds another incentive to remove the wrapper in the future. ) Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: H.
