commit979923871fupstream. Tony reported a boot regression caused by the recent workaround for systems which have a disabled (clock gate off) PIT. On his machine the kernel fails to initialize the PIT because apic_needs_pit() does not take into account whether the local APIC interrupt delivery mode will actually allow to setup and use the local APIC timer. This should be easy to reproduce with acpi=off on the command line which also disables HPET. Due to the way the PIT/HPET and APIC setup ordering works (APIC setup can require working PIT/HPET) the information is not available at the point where apic_needs_pit() makes this decision. To address this, split out the interrupt mode selection from apic_intr_mode_init(), invoke the selection before making the decision whether PIT is required or not, and add the missing checks into apic_needs_pit().

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.
