Subject[PATCH] x86/hpet: Disable HPET on Intel Coffe Lake
Date
Some Coffee Lake platforms have skewed HPET timer once the SoCs entered
PC10, and marked TSC as unstable clocksource as result.

Harry Pan identified it's a firmware bug [1].

To prevent creating a circular dependency between HPET and TSC, let's
disable HPET on affected platforms.
