  Log:
  Add a new test_counter() function which tries to determine the width of
  the inter-value histogram for 2000 samples.  If the width is 3 or less
  for 10 consequtive samples, we trust the counter to be good, otherwise
  we use the *_safe() method.
  
  This method may be too strict, but the worst which can happen is that
  we take the performance hit of the *_safe() method when we should not.
  
  Make the *_safe() method more discriminating by mandating that the three
  samples do not span more than 15 ticks on the counter.
  
  Disable the PCI-ident based probing as a means to recognize good
  counters.
  
  Inspiration from:       dillon and msmith
