applied to tip:x86/uv, thanks Dimitri!

Note, the new code does not build on !SMP:

arch/x86/kernel/uv_time.c:87: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
arch/x86/kernel/uv_time.c:87: error: for each function it appears in.)
arch/x86/kernel/uv_time.c: In function 'uv_setup_intr':
arch/x86/kernel/uv_time.c:117: error: implicit declaration of function 'cpu_physical_id'

So it's not merged into tip:master yet and not en route to 
2.6.30 yet either.

Please send a delta fix against tip:x86/uv. Thanks,

	Ingo
