x86/hpet: Use another crystalball to evaluate HPET usability
On recent Intel systems the HPET stops working when the system reaches PC10 idle state. The approach of adding PCI ids to the early quirks to disable HPET on these systems is a whack a mole game which makes no sense. Check for PC10 instead and force disable HPET if supported. The check is overbroad as it does not take ACPI, intel_idle enablement and command line parameters into account. That's fine as long as there is at least PMTIMER available to calibrate the TSC frequency. The decision can be overruled by adding "hpet=force" on the kernel command line. Remove the related early PCI quirks for affected Ice Cake and Coffin Lake systems as they are not longer required. That should also cover all other systems, i.e. Tiger Rag and newer generations, which are most likely affected by this as well.
