SubjectRe: HPET timer broken using 2.6.23.13 / nanosleep() hangs
I applied the patch and I am still locking up after
Time: hpet clocksource has been installed.

I rebooted with "clocksource=tsc" to get the logs of the trace which
was added. I'm assuming the grep below gets all the interesting parts.
I enabled the HPET character device as mentioned before, which is why
the hpet0 lines appear now.

# dmesg | egrep -i "(hpet|time|clock)"
ACPI: HPET 37FE7400, 0038 (r1 RS690 AWRDACPI 42302E31 AWRD 98)

I ran a 'sleep 1', which hung as expected when I installed hpet as the
clocksource via /sys. I dumped the sysrq trace showing where it was
hung:

My 'cron' and 'atd' processes were also hung with this exact stack in
'enqueue_hrtimer'.

Thanks,
