x86/hpet: Add function to select a /dev/hpet channel If CONFIG_HPET=y is enabled the x86 specific HPET code should reserve at least one channel for the /dev/hpet character device, so that not all channels are absorbed for per CPU clockevent devices. Create a function to assign HPET_MODE_DEVICE so the rework of the clockevents allocation code can utilize the mode information instead of reducing the number of evaluated channels by #ifdef hackery. The function is not yet used, but provided as a separate patch for ease of review. It will be used when the rework of the clockevent selection takes place.
