[PATCH] HPET: stop soliciting hpet=force users on ICH4M

From: Len Brown
Date: Thu Apr 23 2009 - 19:20:19 EST


From: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx>

The HPET in the ICH4M is not documented in the data sheet
because it was not officially validated.

While it is fine for hackers to continue to use "hpet=force"
to enable the hardware that they have, it is not prudent to
solicit additional "hpet=force" users on this hardware.
