[PATCH] fix timer interrupts on NUMA-Q
Since I turned on the IO-APICs on secondary quads, we are receiving timer interrupts on *all* quads, not just the first quad, each from their local timer chip. This causes time to progress far too rapidly ;-) The simple patch below turns off the timer interrupts for IO-APICs other than interrupt 0, and has been tested to fix the problem. As it switches on clustered_apic_mode, it should be safe from hurting anyone else. This fix is already in 2.4 - I'm playing catchup with 2.5 - the same patch applies with just a line offset
