The commit message says that this can only be determined at runtime, but
this looks like we're writing a compile-time static value.

Do we need anything in the way or barriers and/or cache flushing to
ensure that this is visible to the secondary CPUs? Or is the MMU off at
this point?

I think this would be better as COUNTER_FREQUENCY, so as to avoid
duplicating the value.

Thanks,
Mark.
