Note that r352684 was MFC'd to both 11-stable (r353007) and 12-stable
(r353006) in early October and I don't recall seeing any adverse
reports before this.

Are you running NTP?  If so, is NTP maintaining lock and what is the
reported PLL frequency (ntpq -c kerni)?

What does "sysctl kern.timecounter" report and have you tried using
any of the alternative timecounters listed in kern.timecounter.choice?

Are you overclocking your CPU (or doing anything else non-standard)?
