[PATCH] Remove unnecessary irq disabling

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 316 bytes --]

RR asks us if it is really necessary to disable interrupts in
setup_secondary_APIC_clock(). The answer is no, since setup_APIC_timer()
starts by saving irq flags, which also disables them.
