And the further boot log says:

[    0.036000] tsc: Unable to calibrate against PIT
[    0.036000] tsc: using HPET reference calibration
[    0.036000] tsc: Detected 3500.117 MHz processor

So the quick calibration in early boot fails because the PIT seems not to
do what the kernel expects. Nothing we can cure :(

Thanks,
