We've seen this before; the Acer Aladdin X clocks are busted.  Turn off
the ACPI timer.

A 'better' solution is going to be for us to sanity-check the ACPI
timer and not use it when it's broken.  I really need someone with one
of these busted boards to spend a little time looking at the (really,
really simple) code and experimenting to see what's going on.

When the system panics, it *stops*.  The message doesn't "disappear" at all.
Please capture whatever is happening and write it down; this isn't a useful
bug report.
