Thanks.


So it's a CONFIG_SMP=y kernel on a single-cpu machine?


I'm in a twisty maze of kernel versions, all different.  Looks like we're
calling setup_nmi() under local_irq_disable() somewhere but I got lost
chasing it down.  We can wait for the code to stabilise a bit I guess -
it's harmless at this stage in bootup.


hm, I wonder if this is significant.


It is unclear to me what clocksource (if any) your machine is using.


And I assume this happened because you just aren't getting any clock ticks.
