x86, hpet: Stop soliciting hpet=force users on ICH4M

The HPET in the ICH4M is not documented in the data sheet
because it was not officially validated.

While it is fine for hackers to continue to use "hpet=force"
to enable the hardware that they have, it is not prudent to
solicit additional "hpet=force" users on this hardware.

[ Impact: remove hpet=force syslog message on old-ICH systems ]
