[PATCH 0/6] Latest in kernel PIT patch

[Yang, Sheng]

Hi

Here is the latest in kernel PIT patch. Not much change from last edition. 

One known issue is on 2.6.9 pae guest(e.g. RHEL4), you need "clock=pit" kernel 
parameter to get the correct time. That's because the kernel is too active 
to "fix the lost interrupt" when PIT interrupts pending... We may find more 
elegant way to deal with it later.

Thanks
Yang, Sheng

Thanks, all applied.

Any sufficiently difficult bug is indistinguishable from a feature.
