In both cases the TSC is ahead of the pm_timer, which looks like the
pm_timer is behaving strange.

Can you please disable the pm_timer (in the kernel config,
unfortunately there is no command line option for that) for a test and
provide the relevant output of demsg ?

I manually deleted CONFIG_X86_PM_TIMER from .config, but it returns silently. The only way I see to turn off the pm_timer is to disable power management. Is that what I need to do?
