It makes the crash on boot go away, but it is still possible to trigger
a similar crash (hrtimer oopsing due to corrupt rbtree) using the 
perf_fuzzer.

This all started because when trying to debug the perf_fuzzer crash I 
was told to turn on the extra debugging, and then that caused the crash at 
boot.

The fuzzer related crash happens on both a core2 and a haswell machine
and it triggers pretty quickly when fuzzing, I'll have to go back and see 
how repeatable it is.
