Yep... Here is the patch I'd like to get in 2.6.22 but as it touches
couple of arches I can't test on I am a bit hesitant to push it
through my tree. Thomas OKed it but nobody else responded.

Input: pcspkr - use proper lock

On i386 and x86_64 the access to the PIT is serialized by a lock
in the architecture code. The separate locking in the PC-speaker
code ignores the global lock and creates a nasty race between the
PC-speaker and the PIT clock source/events code on SMP machines.

To fix this we architecture code attaches proper lock to the
pcspkr platform device and the driver uses it instead of it's
own private lock.

Noticed by Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

Also resore uevent generation for pcspkr devices so that the
driver can be loaded automatically by udev.
