x86, tsc, sched: Recompute cyc2ns_offset's during resume from sleep states
TSC's get reset after suspend/resume (even on cpu's with invariant TSC which runs at a constant rate across ACPI P-, C- and T-states). And in some systems BIOS seem to reinit TSC to arbitrary large value (still sync'd across cpu's) during resume. This leads to a scenario of scheduler rq->clock (sched_clock_cpu()) less than rq->age_stamp (introduced in 2.6.32). This leads to a big value returned by scale_rt_power() and the resulting big group power set by the update_group_power() is causing improper load balancing between busy and idle cpu's after suspend/resume. This resulted in multi-threaded workloads (like kernel-compilation) go slower after suspend/resume cycle on core i5 laptops. Fix this by recomputing cyc2ns_offset's during resume, so that sched_clock() continues from the point where it was left off during suspend.
