It fails to boot on my HPC nx6325 (hangs very early, before any messages reach
the console), because of this patch:

x86_64-convert-to-clockevents.patch

(as identified by bisection).

Unfortunately, after reverting it I had to revert quite a lot of other patches
(hpet-related mostly).

The failing .config is attached.

Greetings,
Rafael
