[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This patch does: - Remove outdated comments (which someday I marked with "?").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. (10sec loop test, with nojitter @ Madison 1.5GHz x 4) Before: CPU 0: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 69598875 iterations) CPU 1: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 69630721 iterations) CPU 2: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 69607850 iterations) CPU 3: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 69619832 iterations) After: CPU 0: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 70257728 iterations) CPU 1: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 70309498 iterations) CPU 2: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 70280639 iterations) CPU 3: 0.14 (usecs) (0 errors / 70260682 iterations) Signed-off-by: Hidetoshi Seto <seto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
