Just explaining what happens.

These are for the setup calibration (rthal_calibrate_timer).

This is the call to __ipipe_mach_release_timer, at the end of
calibration, which should put the timer back under Linux control, in
auto-reload mode.

Linux ticks, set_dec is not called, because the timer auto-reloads.

Here the timer goes under Xenomai control, ipipe_mach_timerstolen is set
to 1.

First timer interrupt, should trig a call to Xenomai tick timer handler,
which should reprogram the next timer. At this time, there is only one
timer in Xenomai's list: the host timer, so, we should see an
set_dec(42186) again.

The problem probably comes from the fact that you are running with
CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, I will try and reproduce this on different
hardware.
