Bzy_MHz = TSC_delta*tsc_tweak/APERF_delta/MPERF_delta/measurement_interval
becomes
Bzy_MHz = base_mhz/APERF_delta/MPERF_delta
on systems which support MSR_NHM_PLATFORM_INFO.
base_mhz is calculated directly from the base_ratio reported in MSR_NHM_PLATFORM_INFO * bclk, and bclk is discovered via MSR or cpuid.
This reduces the dependency of Bzy_MHz calculation on the TSC. Previously, there were 4 TSC readings required in each caculation, the raw TSC delta combined with the measurement_interval. This also removes the "tsc_tweak" correction factor used when TSC runs on a different base clock from the CPU's bclk.
After this change, tsc_tweak is used only for %Busy.
The end-result should be a Bzy_MHz result slightly less prone to jitter.
