I guess the patch looks good, I'm just not sure what HPET got to do with
anything.. the scheduler certainly doesn't use HPET for timekeeping, its
terribly slow to read.

Also, it would be good to get some more justification than 'some
applications can use this', which is basically a truism for any patch
that adds a user interface.
