The bootloader have done a timebase sync. If we do not need KEXEC or
HOTPLUG_CPU feature, it is unnecessary to do it again at boot time of
kernel. I only compile the timebase sync routines
when users enable KEXEC or HOTPLUG_CPU. 

Still, how much are you really saving ? Is it worth the added mess and
loss of test coverage ?

We have too many conditional stuff like that already.

OK. I will remove this config option.
