Subject[BUG] get_rtc_time() triggers NMI watchdog in hpet_rtc_interrupt()
Since 2.6.27-rc1 my Core2Duo has been getting sporadic oopses
from hpet_rtc_interrupt, usually during shutdown or reboot,
but occasionally also early in init. Today I finally managed
to capture one via a serial cable:

INIT: version 2.86 booting
Welcome to Fedora Core

BUG: NMI Watchdog detected LOCKUP on CPU0, ip c0117092, registers:

=======================
Code: 89 44 24 18 0f b6 c2 e8 5d 74 0c 00 8b 0d d8 9c 3b c0 89 44 24 1c 8b 44 24 0c 48 89 44 24 20 e9 84 fd ff ff 90 8d 74 26 00 f3 90 <a1> 80 ba 35 c0 29 f8 83 f8 01 76 f2 e9 e1 fe ff ff 90 8d 74 26

This points to the following loop in hpet_rtc_interrupt:

0xc0117090 <hpet_rtc_interrupt+720>: pause
0xc0117092 <hpet_rtc_interrupt+722>: mov 0xc035ba80,%eax
0xc0117097 <hpet_rtc_interrupt+727>: sub %edi,%eax
0xc0117099 <hpet_rtc_interrupt+729>: cmp $0x1,%eax
0xc011709c <hpet_rtc_interrupt+732>: jbe 0xc0117090 <hpet_rtc_interrupt+720>

Note: 0xc035ba80 == &jiffies

This loop originates from asm-generic/rtc.h:get_rtc_time()

while (jiffies - uip_watchdog < 2*HZ/100) {
barrier();
cpu_relax();
}

Note: HZ == CONFIG_HZ == 100

The bug may not originate from the 2.6.27-rc series as I only recently
enabled HPET in this machine's kernels (not due to HPET problems, it
inherited its .config way back from an older machine w/o HPET).
