Subhransu reported that convert_art_to_tsc() isn't working for him.

It turns out that because of commit:

  57779dc2b3b7 ("x86, tsc: Skip refined tsc calibration on systems with reliable TSC")

Systems with TSC_KNOWN_FREQ (due to having CPUID.15h) will not run the
refined calibration thing, and then forget to set the ART clocksource
relation.

We cannot set the ART relation prior to running the refined calibration;
therefore duplicate the lines.

XXX: should we clear this in mark_tsc_unstable() ?
