This is expected behaviour when CONFIG_NET_SCH_CLK_CPU is defined:

	Say Y here if you want to use the CPU's cycle counter as clock
	source.

	This is a cheap and high resolution clock source, but on some
	architectures it is not synchronized on all processors
	and doesn't handle cpu clock frequency changes.

Yes, specify a different clock source in your kernel configuration.
