From: Gowrishankar Muthukrishnan <gowrishankar.m at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This reverts commit 15692396fd68932b6a81f00f12d4b0da12baa7d3
(eal/ppc64: implement arch-specific TSC freq query). We intended
to derive pkt/sec estimation with cpu clock frequency. As timebase
register serves the timer purpose, we need to stick with it for
calculating pkt/sec, hence reverting the change.

Fixes: 15692396fd (eal/ppc64: implement arch-specific TSC freq query)
