I've bisected it.

commit 3e51f33fcc7f55e6df25d15b55ed10c8b4da84cd
Author: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>
Date: Sat May 3 18:29:28 2008 +0200

sched: add optional support for CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK

this replaces the rq->clock stuff (and possibly cpu_clock()).

- architectures that have an 'imperfect' hardware clock can set
CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK

- the 'jiffie' window might be superfulous when we update tick_gtod
before the __update_sched_clock() call in sched_clock_tick()

- cpu_clock() might be implemented as:

sched_clock_cpu(smp_processor_id())

if the accuracy proves good enough - how far can TSC drift in a
single jiffie when considering the filtering and idle hooks?
