It is set only on boot, and not on resume now. But on my system I think bios re-enables it. Secondary to enable HPET to act as a timer on IRQ0 and to make it replace RTC IRQ8 one must set HPET_CFG_LEGACY This bit is definitely not set on resume, so on my system I get a hang if I use HPET as clockevents device, and on other system where bios doesn't reenable HPET, then even if HPET is used as timing device 'date won't advance' But I set those bits only in initialization of HPET clockevents device, and I set always, when it is turned on, It is not that good,but works. Now I don't have a clue how to set those bits if only HPET is used as clock source because now clocksources don't have _any_ resume hook. The timing problem you mention I think isd connected to the fact that HPET is not enabled instantly after resume, but after some time when clockevents core calls HPET to enable event timer.
