Subject: lockup when C1E and high-resolution timers enabled

Hi,

 on following computer configuration, I do get hard lockup under heavy
IO-Load (using rsync):

 - CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y
 - CPU: AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor (family 0x15 model 0x2)
 - Motherboard: 'GA-970A-UD3P (rev. 1.0)' AMD 970/SB950
 - BIOS: C1E enabled (on 'GA-970A-UD3P' there is no disable option)
 - Kernels: 4.1.0-rc6, 4.0.x, 3.16.x

Tests:
 - add kernel parameter "idle=halt" -> system runs fine
 - disable CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS -> system runs fine
 - change motherboard and disable C1E -> system runs fine
 - change CPU to AMD Phenom II X6 Processor -> system runs fine
