Actually, you don't.

The modern form of timer interrupt on x86 is the local apic timer, and it 
doesn't go through the io-apic at all, and is not even visible to the irq 
subsystem. So it stays enabled through this all.

But for old-style timer interrupts, something like the appended should 
do it.

Untested, of course, but it looks obvious enough.
