d48fc63f6f Revert "clocksource: Load the ACPI PM clocksource asynchronously"
This reverts commit b519508298.

The reason for this revert is that making the frequency verification
preemptible and interruptible is not working reliably. Michaels
machine failed to use PM-timer with the message:

  PM-Timer running at invalid rate: 113% of normal - aborting.

That's not a surprise as the frequency verification does rely on
interrupts being disabled. With a async scheduled thread there is no
guarantee to achieve the same result. Also some driver might fiddle
with the CTC channel 2 during the verification period, which makes the
result even more random and unpredictable.

This can be solved by using the same mechanism as we use in the
deferred TSC validation code, but that only will work if we verified a
working HPET _BEFORE_ trying to do the PM-Timer lazy validation.

So for now reverting is the safe option.

b519508298 clocksource: Load the ACPI PM clocksource asynchronously
The ACPI clocksource takes quite some time to initialize,
and this increases the boot time of the kernel for a
double digit percentage. This while almost all modern
systems will be using the HPET already anyway.

This patch turns the clocksource loading into an asynchronous
operation; which means it won't hold up the boot while
still becoming available normally.

To make this work well, an udelay() had to be turned into an
usleep_range() so that on UP systems, we yield the CPU to
regular boot tasks instead of spinning.

db6b175fa6 acpi_pm: Clear pmtmr_ioport if acpi_pm initialization fails
If the acpi pm timer throws invalid data, clear pmtmr_ioport
so the pm timer won't accidentally be used.

This was found when using Xen where there is a acpi pm reported,
but gives bogus values, and other code was continuing to try
to use the pm timer after the initialization failed.

08604bd993 time: move PIT_TICK_RATE to linux/timex.h
PIT_TICK_RATE is currently defined in four architectures, but in three
different places.  While linux/timex.h is not the perfect place for it, it
is still a reasonable replacement for those drivers that traditionally use
asm/timex.h to get CLOCK_TICK_RATE and expect it to be the PIT frequency.

Note that for Alpha, the actual value changed from 1193182UL to 1193180UL.
 This is unlikely to make a difference, and probably can only improve
accuracy.  There was a discussion on the correct value of CLOCK_TICK_RATE
a few years ago, after which every existing instance was getting changed
to 1193182.  According to the specification, it should be
1193181.818181...

The current check for monotonicity is way too weak: Andreas Mohr reports (
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/10/77 ) that on one of his test systems the
current check only triggers in 50% of all cases, leading to catastrophic
timer behaviour.  To fix this issue, expand the check for monotonicity by
doing ten consecutive tests instead of one.

dfdf748a61 clocksource, acpi_pm.c: use proper read function also in errata mode
On all hardware (some Intel ICH4, PIIX4 and PIIX4E chipsets) affected by a
hardware errata there's about a 4.2% chance that initialization of the
ACPI PMTMR fails.  On those chipsets, we need to read out the timer value
at least three times to get a correct result, for every once in a while
(i.e.  within a 3 ns window every 69.8 ns) the read returns a bogus
result.  During normal operation we work around this issue, but during
initialization reading a bogus value may lead to -EINVAL even though the
hardware is usable.

Thanks to Andreas Mohr for spotting this issue.

44c10138fd PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revision
Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.

This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword
for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the
read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all.

In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what
appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code
and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

1ff100d76f [PATCH] correct slow acpi_pm rating
On Bob's machine clocksource is selecting PIT over the ACPI PM timer,
because he has the PIIX4 bug.  That bug drops the ACPI PM timers rating
to the same as the PIT, so that's why you're getting the PIT.

Realistically, the PIT is much slower then even the triple read ACPI PM,
so the de-ranking code is probably dropping it too far.

So don't drop ACPI PM quite so low if we see the PIIX4 bug.

6bb74df481 [PATCH] clocksource init adjustments (fix bug #7426)
This patch resolves the issue found here:
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7426

The basic summary is:
Currently we register most of i386/x86_64 clocksources at module_init
time. Then we enable clocksource selection at late_initcall time. This
causes some problems for drivers that use gettimeofday for init
calibration routines (specifically the es1968 driver in this case),
where durring module_init, the only clocksource available is the low-res
jiffies clocksource. This may cause slight calibration errors, due to
the small sampling time used.

It should be noted that drivers that require fine grained time may not
function on architectures that do not have better then jiffies
resolution timekeeping (there are a few). However, this does not
discount the reasonable need for such fine-grained timekeeping at init
time.

Thus the solution here is to register clocksources earlier (ideally when
the hardware is being initialized), and then we enable clocksource
selection at fs_initcall (before device_initcall).

This patch should probably get some testing time in -mm, since
clocksource selection is one of the most important issues for correct
timekeeping, and I've only been able to test this on a few of my own
boxes.
