[PATCH 1/1] char: hpet: Remove unused local variable 'm' in hpet_interrupt()

[Zhen Lei]

Commit 273ef9509b79 ("drivers/char/hpet.c: fix periodic-emulation for
delayed interrupt") removed the reference to local variable 'm', but
forgot to remove the definition and assignment of it. Due to
read_counter() indirectly calls "read barrier", the performance is
slightly degraded.

Since the following comments give some description based on 'm', so move
the assignment of 'm' into it.

Fixes: 273ef9509b79 ("drivers/char/hpet.c: fix periodic-emulation for delayed interrupt")
