Please try attached patch.

It fixes the problem mostly for me, there is just one little glitch
left, which is that the lines "FP[x] enabled" will still print an
invalid time. I assume it's because when this text is printed, the
clock/interrupts for the just booted CPU aren't enabled yet.

I'm not sure it's worth trying to fix that. 
One could print out that info at a later time, or just disabled it.
