  Log:
  Remove unused real-mode APM setup support.  We've been using the vm86
  mode initialiser for a while now, and it's looking happy.

  Log:
  We're called too early to have any idea whether APM is going to be
  active or not.  The only sane thing we can do here is assume that if
  APM is supported it might be active at some point, and bail.
  
  In reality, even this isn't good enough; regardless of whether we support
  APM or not, the system may well futz with the CPU's clock speed and throw
  the TSC off.  We need to stop using it for timekeeping except under
  controlled circumstances.  Curse the lack of a dependable high-resolution
  timer.
