This will cause problems for kvm, which maps interrupts 1:1 without 
exceptions.  While we could add support for remapping, it would mean 
that older kernels would not be able to support an hpet.

Isn't it possible to connect the hpet to pic irq 2 and ioapic irq 2, 
maintaining the 1:1 mapping?

(what's irq 2 connected to now?)
