Subject: APIC timer needs rearming before halting the cpu
X-Git-Tag: v3.2.0~562
X-Git-Url: http://zhaoyanbai.com/repos/%22http:/www.isc.org/icons/rndc-confgen.html?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bed9e48c124f04054916a591afdd35bc75bb21c7;p=minix.git

APIC timer needs rearming before halting the cpu

- time stops if there is no activity and the timer expired before
  we halted the cpu

- restart_local_timer() checks if the timer has expired and if so it
  restarts it

- we do the same when switching back to userspace
