Okay, so you also have phantom interrupts :). Although the thing is that when I 
reboot (or start) the machine, its always in good state, and only after 
sometime it goes into bad state.

I too get that hpet thing in dmesg : dmesg | grep hpet  -
  hpet0: at MMIO 0xfed00000, IRQs 2, 8, 0
  hpet0: 3 64-bit timers, 14318180 Hz
  hpet_resources: 0xfed00000 is busy
  Time: hpet clocksource has been installed.

The extra wakeups are 'phantoms'.

Well I thought I was having better results after a reboot but that 
proved not to be true.  I just rebooted and I've got 22000 wakeups/sec.  
What's next?  I did get a message in dmesg that's interesting.  I'm not 
sure if this message shows up every time, maybe it's part of the problem.

from dmesg:

hpet_resources: 0xfed00000 is busy
