[IA64] cleanup and improve fsys_gettimeofday
This patch does:
- Remove outdated comments (which someday I marked with "?").
- Reassemble instructions to fit them in fewer bundles.
- If McKinley Errata 9 workaround is not needed, the workaround
bundles will be patched out with NOPs. However it also not
needed to have a totally NOP bundle (nop * 3) before branch.
As a result, this makes the code path 3 (or 2) bundles shorter
(and remove 1 unnecessary stop bit). It seems to be 1% faster.
