[PATCH 1/2] x86/hpet: Use another crystalball to evaluate HPET usability

[Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com>]

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

On recent Intel systems the HPET stops working when the system reaches PC10
idle state.

The approach of adding PCI ids to the early quirks to disable HPET on
these systems is a whack a mole game which makes no sense.

Check for PC10 instead and force disable HPET if supported. The check is
overbroad as it does not take ACPI, mwait-idle enablement and command
line parameters into account. That's fine as long as there is at least
PMTIMER available to calibrate the TSC frequency. The decision can be
overruled by adding "clocksource=hpet" on the Xen command line.

Remove the related PCI quirks for affected Coffee Lake systems as they
are not longer required. That should also cover all other systems, i.e.
Ice Lake, Tiger Lake, and newer generations, which are most likely
affected by this as well.

Fixes: Yet another hardware trainwreck

[Linux commit: 6e3cd95234dc1eda488f4f487c281bac8fef4d9b]

I have to admit that the purpose of checking CPUID5_ECX_INTERRUPT_BREAK
is unclear to me, but I didn't want to diverge in technical aspects from
the Linux commit.

In mwait_pc10_supported(), besides some cosmetic adjustments, avoid UB
from shifting left a signed 4-bit constant by 28 bits.
