Subject: [PATCH] sched/clock: Initialize all per-CPU state before switching
 (back) to unstable

commit cf15ca8deda86b27b66e27848b4b0fe58098fc0b upstream.

In preparation for not keeping the sched_clock_tick() active for
stable TSC, we need to explicitly initialize all per-CPU state
before switching back to unstable.

Note: this patch looses the __gtod_offset calculation; it will be
restored in the next one.
