[PATCH 2.6.21-rt2] PowerPC: enable HRT and dynticks support

[Sergei Shtylyov]

Enable HRT and dynamic ticks support for PowerPC.

Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

---
This patch has been reworked against the 2.6.21 clockevents framework.
It has only been tested on the Book E 32-bit CPU this time, so re-testing on
"classic" PowerPC CPUs is needed (there have been issues as of 2.6.18-rt7 but
those should now be fixed)...
