The comment in kernel/sched/clock.c says that there is no strict promise that it starts at zero. So initialize rq->age_stamp when a cpu starts up to avoid this. I was seeing long delays on a simulator that didn't start the clock at zero. This might also be an issue on reboots on processors that don't re-initialize the timer to zero on reset, and when using kexec.
