Thanks for sending your config and test results. Looking at the call trace you provided, I'm not seeing anything yet, but I'll be looking over the code while running my test boxes in a reboot loop w/ your config to see if I can't figure out the get_next_timer_interrupt issue you saw at bootup. thanks -john
