Right. This kernel presumably has the shiny new stack unwinding code
enabled, so we didn't get half the backtrace (dammit). Are you able to
recall whether the 2.6.17-mm4 build had CONFIG_UNWIND_INFO enabled?
it was in my original .config in this thread, CONFIG_UNWIND_INFO not defined.

And this is the traditional backtrace which is actually useful.
You've hit about seventeen bugs all at the same time here :(
:-) just trying to help.
- There's something wrong in do_timer(). Everything's been inlined so
it's hard to tell where it oopsed. If you're able to build with
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO and do
gdb vmlinux
(gdb) l *0xNNNNNNNNN
where NNNNNNNN is the oopsing RIP address then it'll tell us the
file-n-line.
this is from a kernel one build later (one that works)
(gdb) l *0xffffffff80236e71
0xffffffff80236e71 is in do_timer (include/linux/clocksource.h:128).
123 *
124 * Uses the clocksource to return the current cycle_t value
125 */
126 static inline cycle_t read_clocksource(struct clocksource *cs)
127 {
128 return cs->read();
129 }
130
131 /**
132 * cyc2ns - converts clocksource cycles to nanoseconds
- Somebody enabled local interrupts. The early boot code is _supposed_ to
hold interrupts off until start_kernel() does local_irq_eanble(). But we do
heaps of things which make that unreliable.
We don't know where this happened, and fixing that might make the oops go
away.
<thinks some more>
I suspect that either local interrupts were enabled before you entered
time_init(), or something under time_init() went and enabled interrupts, and
the kernel will crash if it takes a timer interrupt before timekeeping_init()
has run.
As an experiment, try adding a local_irq_disable() in start_kernel(), just
before it calls time_init().
see the other message where reordering the time_init seemed to fix the
issue. But to answer your question, local_irq_disable() before
time_init also fixes it.

This stuff really really sucks.
One guess would be that something under time_init()->setup_irq() is enabling
interrupts. You could sprinkle
