x200 does not enable any way to programmatically obtain bus clock
speed. Bclk for the architecture has a fixed value of 100 MHz.
At the same time x200 cannot be included in has_snb_msrs since
it does not support C7 idle state.

prior to this patch, MHz values reported on this chip
were erroneously calculated using bclk of 133MHz,
causing MHz values to be reported 33% higher than actual.
