mind doing 2 defines for these? Makes things more readable I suspect

why not use lapic_is_integrated() here?

please put "approximated at" or something here; or people will call
supportlines if they bought a 3.4Ghz processor and this shows 3.39999Ghz



> +EXPORT_SYMBOL(switch_APIC_timer_to_ipi);

why is this exported at all? Modules really shouldn't be touching apic
level details....



this patch is extremely difficult to review because diff has made a mess
out of it ;(
