It is possible, that the task doing i915 hung for some reason and blocked other tasks while doing so. I can't answer why. But it looks like once i915 recovered, it released some locks and the remaining part of the system continued to work. One thing: You could if the number of your problems decrease if you switch from CONFIG_NOHZ_FULL to CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC. > Jacek Sebastian
