OK, in 2.6.35, linux-source, on line 328 in /kernel/time/tick-sched.c, this is what I see:
         if (rcu_needs_cpu(cpu) || printk_needs_cpu(cpu) ||
<328> arch_needs_cpu(cpu)) {
                 next_jiffies = last_jiffies + 1;
                 delta_jiffies = 1;

whereas in 2.6.36 linux-source, I see this:
         if (rcu_needs_cpu(cpu) || printk_needs_cpu(cpu) ||
<328> arch_needs_cpu(cpu)) {
                 next_jiffies = last_jiffies + 1;
                 delta_jiffies = 1;

OK. so this does not help. -:(
Still sharing the results of my findings.
