[PATCH] x86_64: Rename oem_force_hpet_timer to apic_is_clustered_box

Rename oem_force_hpet_timer to apic_is_clustered_box, to give the function a better fitting name - it really isn't at all about HPET. Signed-off-by: Vojtech Pavlik <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
