 "Drop support for depercated platforms using SFI, drop the entire
  support for SFI that has been long deprecated too and make some
  janitorial changes on top of that (Andy Shevchenko)"

-        APB timer is the replacement for 8254, HPET on X86 MID platforms.
-        The APBT provides a stable time base on SMP
-        systems, unlike the TSC, but it is more expensive to access,
-        as it is off-chip. APB timers are always running regardless of CPU
-        C states, they are used as per CPU clockevent device when possible.
- 
  # Mark as expert because too many people got it wrong.
  # The code disables itself when not needed.
