Strange clock problem on phenom II x6

[Martin Husemann <martin%duskware.de@localhost>]

I have a machine that shows this as vmstat -i output:

interrupt                                     total     rate
TLB shootdown                                 96203       23

Total                                        238429       59



Look at the cpu0 timer line - and imagine how this breaks everything
big time.

I tried hpet0 and ACPI-Fast as timecounter sources instead of TSC, but
this did not seem to make a difference.

Any hints what to try?
