PATCH 1/1 Remove CLOCK_TICK_RATE from acpi_pm clocksource driver

The acpi_pm clocksource driver uses CLOCK_TICK_RATE which is defined as PIT_TICK_RATE on x86. This patch cleans it up to just use the later so that CLOCK_TICK_RATE can be depecrated.

I suspect the PMTMR_EXPECTED_RATE is not so sensitive that it actually needs to use CLOCK_TICK_RATE or PIT_TICK_RATE here.

Instead we probably should rework mach_countup() to return how long it ran for (in nsecs), since the acpi_pm code really shouldn't need to know PIT_TICK_RATE details at all.

That said, mach_countup is pretty old and crusty code that is important to TSC and loop-per-jiffy calibration. So I'm not sure if there's much gain to digging in and mucking with things there.

So for now, the PIT_TICK_RATE change seems like a fair change.
