After recent upgrade plasmashell and system clock process started 
consuming a lot of cpu:

Also I see a lot of interrupts genegated by cpu0:timer:

# vmstat -i
interrupt                          total       rate
irq1: atkbd0                        1152          2
irq9: acpi0                         1690          3
irq12: psm0                           96          0
irq27: ig4iic0                     12651         23
irq56: iichid0                     12630         23
cpu0:timer                     948004866    1735681
cpu1:timer                         52907         97
cpu2:timer                        250166        458
cpu3:timer                        251124        460
....

What could be causing this?

FreeBSD 16.0-CURRENT #13 main-n284403-895a97c875a0
