This is not necessary.  It's only used for /proc/cpuinfo (delays are done
using tb_ticks_per_usec), and it'll be overwritten by the generic
calibrate_delay() anyway.

We should be removing this from board files that have it, not adding it
to ones that don't.

Please don't do this; drivers/i2c/chips/ds1337.c is deprecated.  You
should be using the RTC-class driver in drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1307.c, which
has a non-device-specific API that can be used.

The ppc_md RTC functions should really just go away, though -- setting
the clock on bootup can be done by generic code, and periodically
updating the RTC when using NTP can be done from userspace.
