    clocksource: Load the ACPI PM clocksource asynchronously · b5195082
    Arjan van de Ven 提交于
    The ACPI clocksource takes quite some time to initialize,
    and this increases the boot time of the kernel for a
    double digit percentage. This while almost all modern
    systems will be using the HPET already anyway.
    
    This patch turns the clocksource loading into an asynchronous
    operation; which means it won't hold up the boot while
    still becoming available normally.
    
    To make this work well, an udelay() had to be turned into an
    usleep_range() so that on UP systems, we yield the CPU to
    regular boot tasks instead of spinning.
