The following patch series contains:

- updates and improvements to high resolution timer / dynticks
- high resolution timer / dynticks support for x86_64
The x86_64 support is based on an initial patch from Chris Wright. Thanks Chris !
The patch set has been tested in the -hrt and -rt trees for quite a while
and the initial problems have been sorted out. Thanks to the folks from the
PowerTop project for testing and feedback.
The -hrt tree at http://www.tglx.de/projects/hrtimers/2.6.22-rc4/ contains
also an hpet force patch series from Venki Pallipadi, but I leave this up to
Venki to send it mainline wards.
Do you know if there's anything specific in there that would fix
the start-up race condition with HRTIMERS on my machine here
(previously discussed, yet unresolved)?
It still happens sporadically on boot-up -- maybe one in 10 boots without
any change in the kernel binary..
Cheers
