perf/x86: Add ability to calculate TSC from perf sample timestamps
For modern CPUs, perf clock is directly related to TSC. TSC can be calculated from perf clock and vice versa using a simple calculation. Two of the three componenets of that calculation are already exported in struct perf_event_mmap_page. This patch exports the third.
