Pull x96 apic updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Updates for the x86 APIC interrupt handling and APIC timer:

   - Fix a long standing issue with spurious interrupts which was caused
     by the big vector management rework a few years ago. Robert Hodaszi
     provided finally enough debug data and an excellent initial failure
     analysis which allowed to understand the underlying issues.

     This contains a change to the core interrupt management code which
     is required to handle this correctly for the APIC/IO_APIC. The core
     changes are NOOPs for most architectures except ARM64. ARM64 is not
     impacted by the change as confirmed by Marc Zyngier.

   - Newer systems allow to disable the PIT clock for power saving
     causing panic in the timer interrupt delivery check of the IO/APIC
     when the HPET timer is not enabled either. While the clock could be
     turned on this would cause an endless whack a mole game to chase
     the proper register in each affected chipset.

     These systems provide the relevant frequencies for TSC, CPU and the
     local APIC timer via CPUID and/or MSRs, which allows to avoid the
     PIT/HPET based calibration. As the calibration code is the only
     usage of the legacy timers on modern systems and is skipped anyway
     when the frequencies are known already, there is no point in
     setting up the PIT and actually checking for the interrupt delivery
     via IO/APIC.

     To achieve this on a wide variety of platforms, the CPUID/MSR based
     frequency readout has been made more robust, which also allowed to
     remove quite some workarounds which turned out to be not longer
     required. Thanks to Daniel Drake for analysis, patches and
     verification"
