That patch
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=fe655d3a06488c8a188461bca493e9f23fc8c448;hp=b0b623c3b22d57d6941b200321779d56c4e79e6b
seems to fix the problem:

# cat /proc/interrupts
           CPU0       CPU1       CPU2       CPU3
  0:       5580       4005       4004       3100    IO-APIC-edge  timer

Please put in in stable 2.6.14.x since it's quite important bugfix.
