[PATCH] x86_64: Handle years beyond 2100

ACPIv2 has an official but optional way to get a date >2100.  Use it.
But all the platforms I tested didn't seem to support it.  But anyways
the x86-64 kernel should be ready for the 22nd century now.  Actually i
shouldn't care about this because I will be dead by then @)
