Finally, here are my fixes to Dominik's patch (meant to send these out
last week, but got swamped). Basically it cleans up some of the math,
adds lost-tick compensation and monotonic_clock, fixes up a bit of the
ACPI table mapping, and moves the config option under the ACPI menu. Oh
yea, and it compiles, too ;)

Works well for me, but needs more testing. 

Applies on top of Dominik's ACPI PM-timer rev.2 patch.

Many thanks to Dominik for the great work and getting this started.
