Thread-topic: [PATCH] Fix lapic timer stop issue in deep C state
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.4.0.080122
Applied, after a lot of restructuring.

Also, would it be cleaner to set up the HPET to do direct FSB writes to a
local APIC, rather than hijacking PIT ch0? There are some corner cases where
we leave PIT ch0 enabled after boot. Do most HPET implementations support
direct FSB interrupt delivery?
