Subject[patch 26/29] softlockup: use cpu_clock() instead of sched_clock()
2.6.23-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

patch a3b13c23f186ecb57204580cc1f2dbe9c284953a in mainline.

sched_clock() is not a reliable time-source, use cpu_clock() instead.
