I do think you tend to trust the hpet too much.

Yes, we've had issues with people doing bad things to the tsc, but on
the whole I really would tend to trust the internal CPU counter a
_lot_ more than the external hpet.

So I think it's equally (if not more) likely that switching from tsc
to hpet causes trouble, because I'd trust the tsc more than the hpet.

DaveJ, do this:

but perhaps also boot with "tsc=reliable", which _should_ get rid of
that CLOCK_SOURCE_MUST_VERIFY, and the clocksource watchdog should do
nothing.

Thomas? Am I misreading that?
