[patch] ppc32: set smp_tb_synchronized on UP with SMP kernel

[Johannes Berg]

ppc32 kernel, when built with CONFIG_SMP and booted on a single CPU
machine, will not properly set smp_tb_synchronized, thus causing
gettimeofday() to not use the HW timebase and to be limited to jiffy
resolution. This, among others, causes unacceptable pauses when
launching X.org.

With this patch, X.org startup time goes down from ~30 seconds to normal
(just a second or so). The know-how really comes from BenH who I
discussed with on IRC.
