I'd rather prefer a oneliner patch that turns it off in the Kconfig 
for now.

We are awfully late in the -rc cycle and this diffstat:

 b/include/linux/sched.h   |    3 ++
 b/kernel/rcutree_plugin.h |    6 +++--
 b/kernel/sched.c          |   44 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----
 b/kernel/signal.c         |   19 +++++++++++------
 b/kernel/softirq.c        |   12 +++++++++-
 kernel/rcutree_plugin.h   |   51 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------
 6 files changed, 105 insertions(+), 30 deletions(-)

looks very scary to me.

Thanks,

	Ingo
