Unlike the setting of HPET_EVT_LEGACY in hpet_broadcast_init(), the
setting of HPET_EVT_DISABLE in hpet_disable_legacy_broadcast() isn't init-
only and hence can race other flag manipulation (not all of which occur
while holding the channel's lock). While possibly any such updates would
only ever occur when HPET_EVT_LEGACY isn't set in the first place, this
doesn't look straightforward to prove, so better be on the safe side.
