[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/4] eal/armv8: implement arch-specific TSC freq query

From: Jerin Jacob <jerin.jacob at caviumnetworks.com>

Use cntvct_el0 system register to get the system counter frequency.

If the system is configured with RTE_ARM_EAL_RDTSC_USE_PMU then
return 0(let the common code calibrate the tsc frequency).
