HPET timer is listed in the ACPI table, but needs a quirk entry in order to
work. Unfortunately, the quirk code runs after first HPET hpet_enable() which
has already determined that the timer doesn't work (reads 0xFFFFFFFF). This
patch allows hpet_enable() to be called again after running the quirk code.

applied to tip/timers/hpet, thanks Janne!
Venki, is this new hpet force-enable quirk entry generally OK:
DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_ICH8_1,
ich_force_enable_hpet);
+DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_ICH8_4,
+ ich_force_enable_hpet);
i guess it's OK since we enable hpet on ICH8_1 already. Should we perhaps
convert these quirks somehow to some ">= threshold_version" condition,
instead of having to enumerate everything?
