I've just merged the Intel 20010717 code, after some very light testing 
at this end.  Feedback is encouraged.

The most visible change in this drop is a fix in handling of fields in 
unaligned regions; this should resolve the issue with Sony VAIO systems 
reporting bogus temperatures and AC adapter status (it may also have 
knock-on effects elsewhere).

A few other minor changes were made in the OSPM portion of the code, 
mostly not user-visible.  One major change; the acpi_timer code has been 
fleshed out into a complete timecounter.

I will next be looking at the problems people are having with the PCI 
interrupt routing _SRS method failing.

Regards,
Mike
