1b82ba6e47 x86: Add HPET force support for MCP55 (nForce 5) chipsets
Add support to force_hpet for all known MCP55 (nForce 5) chipset
LPC bridges.

These are the untested nForce 5 chips (taken from Mikko's original 
patch, and checked against pci.ids).

d79a5f80dc x86: Force enable HPET for CK804 (nForce 4) chipsets
This patch adds a quirk from LinuxBIOS to force enable HPET on
the nVidia CK804 (nForce 4) chipset.

This quirk can very likely support more than just nForce 4
(LinuxBIOS use the same code for nForce 5), and possibly nForce 3,
but I don't have those chipsets, so cannot add and test them.

Tested on an Abit KN9 (CK804).

158ad3260b x86: enable HPET on ICH3 and ICH4
ICH3 and ICH4 have undocumented HPET capabilities. This patch enables
HPET for platforms based around these ICHs.

Tested on various ICH3 and ICH4 platforms.

Because HPET is not officially documented for ICH3/4 and may not have
been validated by chipset folks, we're on thin ice here. I'd recommend
testing this patch in -hrt or -mm for a while and wait for
success/failure reports before feeding it upstream.

tglx: depends on the force_hpet command line option !

b196884e2f x86: force enable HPET on VT8235/8237 chipsets
This patch adds quirks to force enable HPET on Via VT8235 and
VT8237 chipsets. The datasheet for 8237 documents HPET
functionality (although wrongly) whereas HPET is undocumented
for 8235.

Tested on A7V880 (8237) and K7VT4A+ (8235) boards.

tglx: depends on the force_hept commandline option

d54bd57d65 x86: HPET force enable o ICH7 and later
Force detect and/or enable HPET on ICH chipsets.  This patch just handles the
detection part and following patches use this information.  Adds a function to
repeat the force enabling during resume time.

Using HPET this way, instead of PIT increases the time CPUs can reside in
C-state when system is totally idle.  On my test system with Core 2 Duo,
average C-state residency goes up from ~20mS to ~80mS.
