x86: distangle user disabled TSC from unstable
tsc_enabled is set to 0 from the command line switch "notsc" and from the mark_tsc_unstable code. Seperate those functionalities and replace tsc_enable with tsc_disable. This makes also the native_sched_clock() decision when to use TSC understandable. Preparatory patch to solve the sched_clock() issue on 32 bit. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
