NAK.  The clock parts are a complete shambles (compare to the patch I
sent earlier today), and the rest has a bunch of pointless and
misleading changes compared to my code.  This version won't work
correctly even on the SMP8759 hardware I have, let alone on the older
members of the chip family.  My code does.

The reason I haven't posted my patches is that I'm still working them
(albeit slowly), and I don't yet consider the code fit for upstreaming.

I've tried to work nicely with Sigma on this, but that's proving
difficult.  The patches posted so far by Marc seem to me like nothing
but poor NIH rewrites of my code.
