[patch] high-res timers: fix APIC event-broadcasting code

[Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>]

Subject: [patch] high-res timers: fix APIC event-broadcasting code
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

this patch fixes a bug in the APCI-C3-turns-off-lapic related 
event-broadcasting code: it accidentally reactivated the global tick, 
instead of the global event emulation layer.

The effect of this bug was a rare bootup hang on one of my test-laptops 
- but it could also result in other types of timer related problems (but 
not hangs in an already running system), such as imprecise high-res 
timeouts.

Debugged via SysRq-Q.
