Subject: [PATCH v2] hpet: drop stale link
Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2016 01:05:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1455145462-3877-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com> (raw)

Looks like the HPET spec at intel.com got moved.
It isn't hard to find so drop the link, just mention
the revision assumed.

Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
---

Changes from v1:
	actually drop the links, just say "revision 1"
	in case a new one ever comes out.
