I'd very much prefer if we could simply use the regular non-legacy HPET interrupts for timer interrupt generation on both systems without HPET legacy IRQ routing support than using this workaround. It'd fix RTC interrupt issues on machines that do have HPET IRQ legacy routing as well. Did you give this option a consideration?
