As far as I understand the HPET legacy mode is not required after the timer IRQ test. For previous discussion see [1] and [2]. Keeping it enabled prevents reaching deeper C-states on some systems and thereby also S0ix residency. So disable it after the timer IRQ test worked. Note that this code path is only reached when opt_hpet_legacy_replacement < 0, so explicit user choice is still honored.

Changes in v2: - Always disable legacy mode after test, not only when ARAT is available. See [3] for reasoning.
