smell that caused me to turn this up was due to a failed fan burning, not
a CPU (plus a healthy dose of paranoia).

a magnitude smaller than itc_freq. A minimum period of 10*hz is
sufficient precision. As a side-effect, the number of clocks per
second, when the machine is idle, dropped by more than 50%.
Be anal and define the maximum period to be at least 4G seconds.
With a 64-bit counter and an ITC frequency that's expected to be
always less than 4Ghz, it takes longer than that to wrap around.

... and thus retire debug.kdb.stop_cpus tunable/sysctl.
The knob was to work around CPU stopping issues, which since have been
either fixed or greatly reduced. kdb should really operate in a special
environment with scheduler stopped and interrupts disabled to provide
deterministic debugging.

... and also increase the timeout.
It's better to try to proceed somehow despite stuck CPUs than to hang
indefinitely. Especially so during shutdown and when entering kdb or panic.
Timeout value is still an aribitrary value.
Timeout diagnostic is just a printf; the work on something more
debuggable is planned by attilio. Need to be careful here as
stop_cpus_hard is called very early while enetering kdb and soon(-ish)
it may become called very early when entering panic.

o Setting td_intr_frame to the XIVs trap frame because it's referenced
by the ET event handler.
o Signal EOI to the CPU before calling the registered XIV handlers.
This prevents lost ITC interrupts, which cause starvation in one-shot
mode.
o Adding support for IPI_HARDCLOCK with corresponding per-CPU counters.
o Have the APs call cpu_initclocks() so as to limited the scattering of
clock related initialization. cpu_initclocks() calls the <self>_bsp()
or <self>_ap() version accordingly.
o Uncomment the ET clock handling in cpu_idle().
o Update the DDB 'show pcpu' output for the new MD fields.
o Entirely rewritten ia64_ih_clock(). Note that we don't create as many
clock XIVs as we have CPUs, as is done on PowerPC. It doesn't scale.
We can only have 240 XIVs and we can have more CPUs than that. There's
a single intrcnt index for the cumulative clock ticks and we keep per
CPU counts in the PCPU stats structure.
o Register the ITC by hooking SI_SUB_CONFIGURE (2nd order).
Open issues:
o Clock interrupts can still be lost. Some tweaking is still necessary.

* Character ranges are locale-dependent.
