[PATCH] Allow early access to the power management timer

Allow early access to the power management timer by exposing the verified read
function and providing a helper function which checks the pmtmr_ioport
variable and returns either the pm timer readout or 0 in case the pm timer is
not available.

Create a new header file and replace also the ifdef'ed extern definition in
arch/i386/kernel/acpi/boot.c

This is a preperatory patch for the rework of the local apic timer
calibration.

No functional changes.
