x86/asm/delay: Introduce an MWAITX-based delay with a configurable timer

MWAITX can enable a timer and a corresponding timer value
specified in SW P0 clocks. The SW P0 frequency is the same as
TSC. The timer provides an upper bound on how long the
instruction waits before exiting.

This way, a delay function in the kernel can leverage that
MWAITX timer of MWAITX.

When a CPU core executes MWAITX, it will be quiesced in a
waiting phase, diminishing its power consumption. This way, we
can save power in comparison to our default TSC-based delays.

A simple test shows that:

	$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:18.4/hwmon/hwmon0/power1_acc
	$ sleep 10000s
	$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:18.4/hwmon/hwmon0/power1_acc

Results:

	* TSC-based default delay:      485115 uWatts average power
	* MWAITX-based delay:           252738 uWatts average power

Thus, that's about 240 milliWatts less power consumption. The
test method relies on the support of AMD CPU accumulated power
algorithm in fam15h_power for which patches are forthcoming.
