Martin Stein b05b5616c8 x86 cpu_quota: lower error tolerance
Previously, on X86, the timer driver used the PIT with a maximum timeout
of 54 ms.  Thus, the driver frequently interrupted the counters with
highest priority to update the timer. This is why we needed a higher
error tolerance as for ARM where the driver, once configured, can sleep
for the whole test timeout. Now, we use the kernel timer and the problem
seems to be exits no longer.

This is the example operating system based on the Genode OS framework:

:_Init_: is the first real process in the system. The provided implementation
  uses a very simple XML parser to read its configuration files.

:_Drivers_: The example OS has basic drivers for frame buffer, mouse and
  keyboard input, the PCI bus, the real-time clock, and system-specific timers.

:_Server_: The only server in the example OS is Nitpicker, a
  minimal-complexity GUI server.

:_Test_: are also part of the example OS. You may have a look at the fork
  bomb as a simple system stress test.

:_Ldso_: is the dynamic linker used for loading executables that are linked
  against shared libraries.

:_Lib_: contains libraries used by the components of the OS repository,
  for example, the alarm framework.
