[IA64] Speed up boot - skip unnecessary clock calibration
Skip clock calibration if cpu being brought online is exactly the same speed, stepping, etc., as the previous cpu. This significantly reduces the time to boot very large systems. Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
