A cleanup patch from my legacy timer series broke ia64 and led
to RCU stall errors and a fast system clock:

Revert most of my patch to make this work again, including the extra
update_process_times()/profile_tick() and the local_irq_enable() in the
loop that I expected not to be needed here.
I have not found out exactly what goes wrong, and would suggest that
someone with hardware access tries to convert this code into a singleshot
clockevent driver, which should give better behavior in all cases.
