tools/power turbostat: simplify Bzy_MHz calculation Bzy_MHz = TSC_delta*tsc_tweak/APERF_delta/MPERF_delta/measurement_interval becomes Bzy_MHz = base_mhz/APERF_delta/MPERF_delta on systems which support MSR_NHM_PLATFORM_INFO. base_mhz is calculated directly from the base_ratio reported in MSR_NHM_PLATFORM_INFO * bclk, and bclk is discovered via MSR or cpuid. This reduces the dependency of Bzy_MHz calculation on the TSC. Previously, there were 4 TSC readings required in each caculation, the raw TSC delta combined with the measurement_interval. This also removes the "tsc_tweak" correction factor used when TSC runs on a different base clock from the CPU's bclk. After this change, tsc_tweak is used only for %Busy. The end-result should be a Bzy_MHz result slightly less prone to jitter. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
