This patch adds a quirk from LinuxBIOS to force enable HPET on

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.

x86: fix more TSC clock source calibration errors
The previous patch wasn't correctly handling the 'count' variable. If
a CPU gave bad results on the 1st or 2nd run but good results on the
3rd, it wouldn't do the correct thing. No idea if any such CPU
exists, but the patch below handles that case by discarding the bad
runs.
If a bad result (too quick, or too slow) occurs on any of the 3 runs
it will be discarded.
Also updated some comments to explain what's going on.

x86: fix TSC clock source calibration error
I ran into this problem on a system that was unable to obtain NTP sync
because the clock was running very slow (over 10000ppm slow). ntpd had
declared all of its peers 'reject' with 'peer_dist' reason.
On investigation, the tsc_khz variable was significantly incorrect
causing xtime to run slow. After a reboot tsc_khz was correct so I
did a reboot test to see how often the problem occurred:
Test was done on a 2000 Mhz Xeon system. Of 689 reboots, 8 of them
had unacceptable tsc_khz values (>500ppm):
It appears that on rare occasions, mach_countup() is taking longer to
complete than necessary.
I suspect that this is caused by the CPU taking a periodic SMI
interrupt right at the end of the 30ms calibration loop. This would
cause the loop to delay while the SMI BIOS hander runs. The resulting
TSC value is beyond what it actually should be resulting in a higher
tsc_khz.
The below patch makes native_calculate_cpu_khz() take the best
(shortest duration, lowest khz) run of it's 3 calibration loops. If a
SMI goes off causing a bad result (long duration, higher khz) it will
be discarded.
With the patch applied, 300 boots of the same system produce good
results:
Problem was found and tested against 2.6.18. Patch is against 2.6.22.

x86 CPUs are defined not to reorder stores past earlier loads, so there is
no hardware memory barrier required to implement a release-consistent store

So ditch the generic lock bitops, and implement optimised versions for x86,
which removes the mfence from __clear_bit_unlock (which is already a useful

Fix synchronize_irq races with IRQ handler
As it is some callers of synchronize_irq rely on memory barriers
to provide synchronisation against the IRQ handlers. For example,
the tg3 driver does
tp->irq_sync = 1;
smp_mb();
synchronize_irq();
and then in the IRQ handler:
if (!tp->irq_sync)
netif_rx_schedule(dev, &tp->napi);
Unfortunately memory barriers only work well when they come in
pairs. Because we don't actually have memory barriers on the
IRQ path, the memory barrier before the synchronize_irq() doesn't
actually protect us.
In particular, synchronize_irq() may return followed by the
result of netif_rx_schedule being made visible.
This patch (mostly written by Linus) fixes this by using spin
locks instead of memory barries on the synchronize_irq() path.
