This is just a hack then and it does not exists in ioapic so if
it is really needed ioapic+pit combination is broken. But the problem
should be solved inside i8254.c not somewhere else. Setting irq_acked to 1 in
pit_load_count() seems like a right thing to do. Something like
the patch below. Ideally pending should be scaled instead of reset.
Also may be the problem exists because PIC doesn't call mask notifiers?
