That depends whether you require all cores in a SMP system to be built
the same way or not (and therefore to have the same performance.)  I'm
aware of at least one implementation where that isn't the case, and I
see no reason why that would not become more common.

In that case, we need the individual core delay calibration, and lock
delays to either cores or specific groups of cores, or use hardware
timers (if available, and with enough precision) for them.
