Wrong bogomips after plugging in AC power

Hi!

So I've now confirmed that my toshiba can speed-up its cpu under some
circumstances. When it is powered up while batteries are low (<20%
will work), it will start with cpu at 150MHz, and bogomips are
computed accordingly.

If I plug it into AC power, it will speed up to 300MHz, but bogomips
still have "slow" value. Therefore all udelays are wrong by factor of
two -- udelay(50) will only wait approx. 25usec. That seems pretty
dangerous to me. Maybe we need some other source of short loops?
