*
* This function is called from pmtimer_resume() to restore all the timers.
* This should not be necessary, but there are broken laptops that do not
* restore all the timers on resume.
* As long as pmtimer is not part of amd64 suport, skip this for the amd64
* case.
* restore all the timers on resume. The APM spec was at best vague on the
* subject.
* pmtimer is used only with the old APM power management, and not with
* acpi, which is required for amd64, so skip it in that case.
