    timestamp: add tick frequency to exported table
    
    Add the timestamp tick frequency within the timestamp table so
    the cbmem utility doesn't try to figure it out on its own. Those
    paths still exist for x86 systems which don't provide tsc_freq_mhz().
    All other non-x86 systems use the monotonic timer which has a 1us
    granularity or 1MHz.
    
    One of the main reasons is that Linux is reporting
    /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq as the true
    turbo frequency on turbo enables machines. This change also fixes
    the p-state values honored in cpufreq for turbo machines in that
    turbo p-pstates were reported as 100MHz greater than nominal.

    BRANCH=firmware-strago-7287.B
    TEST=Built and booted on glados. Confirmed table frequency honored.
