Good point, thanks Sujith.

Commit message sounds exactly like your issue, Adrian, and oopsing in an
unitialized hrtimer - which this patch fixes - is what you see so you
could very well cherry pick this patch from Linus' tree and test.

Even though this patch is marked for stable, for some reason it didn't
make it into 3.7.1 and I can't find it in the 3.7.2 lineup either.
Strange.

Thanks.
