x86/asm/tsc: Add rdtscll() merge helper

Some in-flight code makes use of the old rdtscll() (now removed), provide a wrapper
for a kernel cycle to smooth the transition to rdtsc().

( We use the safest variant, rdtsc_ordered(), which has barriers - this adds another
  incentive to remove the wrapper in the future. )
