Correct potentially unstable PC RTC time register reading in time_64.c Stop the use of an incorrect technique for reading the standard PC RTC timer, which is documented to "disconnect" time registers from the bus while updates are in progress. The use of UIP flag while interrupts are disabled to protect a 244 microsecond window is one of the Motorola spec sheet's documented ways to read the RTC time registers reliably. tglx: removed locking changes from original patch, as they gain nothing (read_persistent_clock is only called during boot, suspend, resume - so no hot path affected) and conflict with the paravirt locking scheme (see 32bit code), which we do not want to complicate for no benefit.
