Subject: Re: 2.6.31.4: WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c:390
 hpet_next_event+0x70/0x80() [occurs when ACPI_PROCESSOR=y]

Hi,

> This also happens if cpufreq is a module ?
> There's no cpufreq code in that trace, so I'm puzzled.

It is not possible(?) to have CPUFREQ modularized:
   | | [*] CPU Frequency scaling

The ACPI_FREQ option can be though and it happens with or without it being 
a module.
   | |        <M>   ACPI Processor P-States driver

(the first part)

The second part is because I had compiled all of the power options in 
CPU_FREQ into the kernel, when I only copied w/ the ACPI processor 
P-States driver, I no longer got the errors that I originally reported 
(cpufreq-core).

The following error still occurs though, I found the offending kernel 
option(s):

> CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
> CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y

When this option is set, I get this:

When the option is not set, dmesg is normal, no problems (but then, I cannot
run ACPI_FREQ) to achieve turbo mode on my CPU (the ACPI_FREQ driver 
requires the PROCESSOR option to be enabled).

So your next question, does that error occur when processor.ko is a 
module?  Yes:
