This is a follow up of fc5db58539b4 ("x86/quirks: Disable HPET on Intel Coffe Lake platforms"), which addressed the issue for 8th generation Coffee Lake.

Hey Thomas,
Can we perhaps get this into 5.5-rc2?
It'd be nice if Intel could give us a list of SKUs that are affected
(as you asked in another email thread), but barring that, the best we
can do is whack-a-mole like this. I'm typing you this email on the
hardware that this patch addresses.

It probably makes sense to backport the dependency commit mentioned.
