Merge branch 'x86-timers-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 timer updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree includes a HPET overhead micro-optimization plus new TSC
  frequencies for newer Intel CPUs"

* 'x86-timers-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  x86/tsc: Add additional Intel CPU models to the crystal quirk list
  x86/tsc: Use cpu id defines instead of hex constants
  x86/hpet: Reduce HPET counter read contention

/*
* Reading the HPET counter is a very slow operation. If a large number of
* CPUs are trying to access the HPET counter simultaneously, it can cause
* massive delay and slow down system performance dramatically. This may
* happen when HPET is the default clock source instead of TSC. For a
* really large system with hundreds of CPUs, the slowdown may be so
* severe that it may actually crash the system because of a NMI watchdog
* soft lockup, for example.
*
* If multiple CPUs are trying to access the HPET counter at the same time,
* we don't actually need to read the counter multiple times. Instead, the
* other CPUs can use the counter value read by the first CPU in the group.
*
* This special feature is only enabled on x86-64 systems. It is unlikely
* that 32-bit x86 systems will have enough CPUs to require this feature
* with its associated locking overhead. And we also need 64-bit atomic
* read.
*
* The lock and the hpet value are stored together and can be read in a
* single atomic 64-bit read. It is explicitly assumed that arch_spinlock_t
* is 32 bits in size.
