Ingo Molnar dfbf4a1bc3 sched: fix cpu clock
David Miller pointed it out that nothing in cpu_clock() sets
prev_cpu_time. This caused __sync_cpu_clock() to be called
all the time - against the intention of this code.

The result was that in practice we hit a global spinlock every
time cpu_clock() is called - which - even though cpu_clock()
is used for tracing and debugging, is suboptimal.

While at it, also:

- move the irq disabling to the outest layer,
  this should make cpu_clock() warp-free when called with irqs
  enabled.

- use long long instead of cycles_t - for platforms where cycles_t
  is 32-bit.
