[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Remove sub jiffy profile timer support
Remove the finer control of local APIC timer. We cannot provide a sub-jiffy control like this when we use broadcast from external timer in place of local APIC. Instead of removing this only on systems that may end up using broadcast from external timer (due to C3), I am going the "I'm feeling lucky" way to remove this fully. Basically, I am not sure about usefulness of this code today. Few other architectures also don't seem to support this today. If you are using profiling and fine grained control and don't like this going away in normal case, yell at me right now.
