[PATCH] linux-2.4.21-pre1_cyclone-timer_B3

Marcelo, All,
This patch fixes gettimeofday for multi-node Summit based systems (IBM
x440, etc). These systems suffer from TSC skew, and thus require an
alternate high res time source. This patch allows do_gettimeofday to
access a register on the cyclone chip found on these systems, which
functions as a global time source.

Please consider for acceptance.

thanks
-john
