As the Soekris net6501 and other e6xx based systems do not have
any ACPI implementation, HPET won't get enabled.
This patch enables HPET on such platforms.

[    0.430149] pci 0000:00:01.0: Force enabled HPET at 0xfed00000
[    0.644838] HPET: 3 timers in total, 0 timers will be used for per-cpu timer
