there are problems if the kernel puts one core into power saving mode and doesn't re-sync the time when it wakes it up.

oen work-around is to just disable the power-saving mode, the other is code changes to do the tiem syncs on wakeups.

I haven't been following this for several months (a kernel release or so), so I don't know if the code changes have been done and included in the kernel yet.
