If we really can get unsynchronized timebases still, then I suppose we
need to bring back the smp_tb_synchronized variable, 
We make no attempt to sync the timebases on quad powersurge, as far as I
can tell -- and we never set smp_tb_synchronized there.
We don't even use the software sync ? Hrm... actually, I think the
software sync was designed for 2 CPUs only.

Now, go find the one user that had a quad powersurge :)
