x86/asm/tsc/sync: Use rdtsc_ordered() in check_tsc_warp() and drop extra barriers
Using get_cycles was unnecessary: check_tsc_warp() is not called
on TSC-less systems. Replace rdtsc_barrier(); get_cycles() with
rdtsc_ordered().
While we're at it, make the somewhat more dangerous change of
removing barrier_before_rdtsc after RDTSC in the TSC warp check
code. This should be okay, though -- the vDSO TSC code doesn't
have that barrier, so, if removing the barrier from the warp
check would cause us to detect a warp that we otherwise wouldn't
detect, then we have a genuine bug.
