The message from early_time_init (caller of
iinit_pit_and_calibrate_tsc, indicates that the
initial detection is ok:
(pmtimer case) (XEN) Detected 3400.114 MHz processor.
((pit case) (XEN) Detected 3400.165 MHz processor.
So I think it's the latter. The init of a large system
is staving off the soft irq so that the next calc fails.
