Looks like an infinite loop when CONFIG_PREEMPT is off. Try putting an
#ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT around this code:

#ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT
 			while (__ipipe_check_root_resched())
 				__ipipe_preempt_schedule_irq();
#endif

To test that this is indeed the issue, you may try enabling
CONFIG_PREEMPT in the code.
