Allow early access to the power management timer by exposing the verified read
function and providing a helper function which checks the pmtmr_ioport
variable and returns either the pm timer readout or 0 in case the pm timer is
not available.
Create a new header file and replace also the ifdef'ed extern definition in
arch/i386/kernel/acpi/boot.c
This is a preperatory patch for the rework of the local apic timer
calibration.
No functional changes.

Using a flag filed allows to encode more than one information into a variable.
Preparatory patch for the generic clocksource verification.

Mostly changing alignment. Just some general cleanup.

This patch re-adds the verify_pmtmr_rate functionality from 2.6.17 that
I dropped 2.6.18.
This resolves problems seen on older K6 ASUS boards where the ACPI PM
timer runs too fast.
See:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=211902http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2375
Thanks to Ian Campbell for re-reporting this and testing the fix!

I have an acpi_pm that goes backwards, but it's not intel. I tested the
verified read and my acpi_pm started to function properly. So I added it
to the greylist. I'm assuming that's the right spot.
I also added an unlikely() to the while, cause it seems appropriate.

Add a CLOCKSOURCE_MASK macro to simplify initializing the mask for a struct
clocksource, and use it to replace literal mask constants in the various
clocksource drivers.

As suggested by Roman Zippel, change clocksource functions to use
clocksource_xyz rather then xyz_clocksource to avoid polluting the
namespace.

Implement the time sources for i386 (acpi_pm, cyclone, hpet, pit, and tsc).
With this patch, the conversion of the i386 arch to the generic timekeeping
code should be complete.
The patch should be fairly straight forward, only adding the new clocksources.
