SVN rev 210179 on 2010-07-16 23:21:46Z by mav
Add hints for i8254 timer on i386 and amd64. Some people report about
systems with PnP/ACPI not reporting i8254 timer. In some cases it can be
fatal, as i8254 can be the only available time counter hardware. From other
side we are now heavily depend on i8254 timer and till the last time it's
init/usage was completely hardcoded. So this change just restores previous
behavior in more regular fashion.
