Looks to be fixed in -rc6:

-Calibrating delay using timer specific routine.. 6198.05 BogoMIPS (lpj=12396107)
+Calibrating delay using timer specific routine.. 6399.82 BogoMIPS (lpj=12799647)
[...]
-checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]:
-Measured 696 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock.
-Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed
+checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]: passed.

So, BogoMIPS value on CPU#1 is in line with CPU#0 again and TSC passes.
No idea what commit would be responsible.

Cheers,
