Arnd Bergmann 796130b1de ia64: fix timer cleanup regression
A cleanup patch from my legacy timer series broke ia64 and led
to RCU stall errors and a fast system clock:

Revert most of my patch to make this work again, including the extra
update_process_times()/profile_tick() and the local_irq_enable() in the
loop that I expected not to be needed here.

I have not found out exactly what goes wrong, and would suggest that
someone with hardware access tries to convert this code into a singleshot
clockevent driver, which should give better behavior in all cases.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
