[PATCH] x86/intel: Disable HPET on Intel Coffe Lake platforms

From: Kai-Heng Feng

Some Coffee Lake platforms have skewed HPET timer once the SoCs entered
PC10, and marked TSC as unstable clocksource as result.

Harry Pan identified it's a firmware bug [1].

To prevent creating a circular dependency between HPET and TSC, let's
disable HPET on affected platforms.
