[lcd4linux] asm/msr.h inclusion and RDTSC stuff removed

[Michael R. <mi...@re...>]

Hi there,

I just committed a changeset where I removed the whole RDTSC delay loop 
stuff, and therefore lcd4linux does no longer need asm/msr.h

Instead, a gettimeofday() delay loop will be used when necessary.

The rdtsc stuff worked fine, but had two major disadvantages: It did not 
work with variable CPU frequencies, and latest kernels do no longer 
offer the rdtsc() macro.

The changeset has been committed to trunk, and will be backported to the 
0.10.1 branch as soon as I get some positive feedback 8or at least I 
don't get any negative feedback)


bye, Michael
