thanks Michal - this is a real bug that affects upstream too. Find the 
fix below - i've test-booted it and it fixes the warning.

Linus, Andrew, this is a must-have for v2.6.21.

Subject: [patch] setup_boot_APIC_clock() irq-enable fix
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

latest -git triggers an irqtrace/lockdep warning of a leaked
irqs-off condition:

  BUG: at kernel/fork.c:1033 copy_process()

after some debugging it turns out that commit ca1b940c accidentally left 
interrupts disabled - which trickled down all the way to the first time 
we fork a kernel thread and triggered the warning.

the fix is to re-enable interrupts in the 'else' branch of 
setup_boot_APIC_clock()'s pmtimers calibration path.
