[PATCH] x86/mrst: assign a guessed cpu_khz value before calibration

The new setup_local_APIC() code introduced by commit 8c3ba8d0 requires a valid
cpu_khz value used as max loop count for clearing pending interrupts. However,
Moorestown does a early APIC setup for the system timer interrupts which is
before a valid cpu_khz is assigned in tsc calibration code.

This patch assigns a guessed value for cpu_khz to avoid a warning in local APIC
setup code. The acuracy of cpu_khz is not important at the point of local APIC
setup.
