got a spontaneous reboot bug upon bootup on a dual-core system booting a 
32-bit x86 kernel - no message on the console. Config attached.

as this is an integrated branch with a few fixups, i have pushed it out 
into tip/x86/time.broken2 - you can check that end result branch. 
(commit-ID: e8d0f9bf5a0)

the same config boots fine with x86/time removed from the integration.
