  Rework r193814:
  While general idea of patch was good, it was not working properly due the way
  it was implemented. When we are using same timer interrupt for several of
  hard/prof/stat purposes we should not send several IPIs same time to other
  CPUs. Sending several IPIs same time leads to terrible accounting/profiling
  results due to strong synchronization effect, when the second interrupt
  handler accounts processing of the first one.
  Interlink timer events in a such way, that no more then one IPI is sent for
  any original timer interrupt.
