[rtl] local apic timers

[Paolo Mantegazza <mantegazza@aero.polimi.it>]

Hy,

having a look at the 2.2.pre?? I've seen that Linux uses local apic
timers, I think just for profiling, when they are there (SMP).
If I grab one of them to do some precise short timings in an interrupt
will Linux  care?
If I change the scaling of a local apinc timer will Linux  care?

Ciao, Paolo.
