2.6.31-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

From: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com>

Resolved differently upstream in commit 8cab02dc3c58a12235c6d463ce684dded9696848

Ondrej Zary reported a suspend/resume hang with 2.6.31 in bug #14222.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14222

The hang was bisected to c7121843685de2bf7f3afd3ae1d6a146010bf1fc
however, that was really just the last straw that caused the issue.

The problem was that on suspend, the PIT is removed as a clocksource,
and was using the mult value essentially as a is_enabled() flag. The
mult adjustments done in the commit above caused that usage to break,
causing bad list manipulation and the oops.

Further, on resume, the PIT clocksource is never restored, causing the
system to run in a degraded mode with jiffies as the clocksource.

This issue has since been resolved in 2.6.32-rc by commit
8cab02dc3c58a12235c6d463ce684dded9696848 which removes the clocksource
disabling on suspend. Testing shows no issues there.

So the following patch rectifies the situation for 2.6.31 users of the
PIT clocksource that use suspend and resume (which is probably not that
many).

Many thanks to Ondrej for helping narrow down what was happening, what
caused it, and verifying the fix.

---------------

Avoid using the unprotected clocksource.mult value as an "is_registered"
flag, instead us an explicit flag variable. This avoids possible list
corruption if the clocksource is double-unregistered.

Also re-register the PIT clocksource on resume so folks don't have to
use jiffies after suspend.
