are you really sure? in my system (laptop with core duo cpu) it is
increased by around 1000-2000 every 2 seconds and AFAIK it is using
HPET.

So maybe IMO free_irq() is causing your cpu referencing null
instruction...that might be due to free_irq is not checking whether it
is safe to delete a handler....
