This seems to have been introduced by

	commit 7cbaef9c83e58bbd4bdd534b09052b6c5ec457d5
	Author: Ingo Molnar [off-list ref]
	Date:   Sat Nov 8 17:05:38 2008 +0100

	    sched: optimize sched_clock() a bit
    
	    sched_clock() uses cycles_2_ns() needlessly - which is an irq-disabling
	    variant of __cycles_2_ns().
    
	    Most of the time sched_clock() is called with irqs disabled already.
	    The few places that call it with irqs enabled need to be updated.
    
	    Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar [off-list ref]

and this seems to be one of those calling cases that need to be updated.

Ingo? The call trace is:

(from the bugzilla thing)

This should be fixed by commit 28f4197e which was merged on friday.
