I am absolutely ignorant of the issues on this, but I'm pretty sure I remember much cursing coming from the linux kernel guys at work over HPETs. You might want to see if you can find a linux kernel mailing list archive you can search on the topic of HPET, perhaps something useful will crop up (though every time I try to search lkml all I get is 100000 or so hits in the bodies of patches which contain no useful text - someday I need to figure out if google can be induced to ignore hits from inside things that look like context diffs).
