[PATCH] ppc32: set smp_tb_synchronized on UP with SMP kernel

ppc32 kernel, when built with CONFIG_SMP and booted on a single CPU
machine, will not properly set smp_tb_synchronized, thus causing
gettimeofday() to not use the HW timebase and to be limited to jiffy
resolution.  This, among others, causes unacceptable pauses when launching
X.org.
