Hi,

Remember long ago I had a discussion with you about HPET that
steals RTC irq in 'legacy replacement' mode, and rtc driver thus
implements rtc on 'top' of hpet.

New rtc-cmos driver doesn't do this emulation, thus it isn't compatible
with hpet driver.

But there is a solution,  I didn't agree with firstly, but then I did, and
I do agree now, and that to put hpet in normal mode.

What happened with patches that put hpet in normal independent mode?

Best regards,
	Maxim Levitsky
