The broad-cast clock-event was remaining in shut-down mode and hence we were loosing the OS tick after entering to low power states. The cases where it use to work was mainly because of external interrupts like NFS etc. Have posted a patch [1] on LKML which fixes the issue. Waiting for feedback from Thomas on it.
