From: Gowrishankar Muthukrishnan <gowrishanka...@linux.vnet.ibm.com> In ppc_64, rte_rdtsc() returns timebase register value which increments at independent timebase frequency and hence not related to lcore cpu frequency to derive into. In this patch, we fix get_tsc_freq() to not depend upon rte_rdtsc(), but obtain cpu current frequency from sysfs.
