Subject: Spontaneous reboots since 2.6.29-rc*

Sometimes I observed spontaneous reboots during booting kernel, after
this message:
[...]
[    0.024996] ... PM-Timer delta = 357949
[    0.024996] ... PM-Timer result ok
[    0.024996] ..... delta 1249983

[    0.024996] Booting processor 1 APIC 0x1 ip 0x6000

after this should be:
[    0.000999] Initializing CPU#1
[    0.000999] masked ExtINT on CPU#1
[    0.000999] Calibrating delay using timer specific routine..

[    0.000999] CPU: L1 I cache: 32K, L1 D cache: 32K
[    0.000999] CPU: L2 cache: 1024K


Also I found this message in dmesg:
[    0.000000] 4 Processors exceeds NR_CPUS limit of 2
[    0.000000] SMP: Allowing 2 CPUs, 0 hotplug CPUs


I only have two processors:

I use latest bios. Unfortunately it happens only sometimes, so I
cannot try bisect.
