      Do not use the ia64 clocksource on non-ia64 architectures · 3b2b64fd
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The HPET clocksource in drivers/char/hpet.c was written as generic code
      for ia64, but it is not yet ready to replace the native HPET clocksource
      implementations that the i386/x86-64 architectures use.
      
      On x86[-64], trying to register this clocksource results in potentially
      multiple hpet-based clocksources being registered, and if the ia64 one
      is chosen on x86_64 some users have experienced hangs.
      
      Eventually all three architectures may end up using the same code, but
      that is not the case right now.
