Hey Paul,

I am hitting a similar bug.
Starting udev Kernel Device Manager...
Starting Configure read-only root support...
[   79.942067] INFO: rcu_sched_state detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: { 0} (detected by 2, t=60002 jiffies)
[   79.942089] sending NMI to all CPUs:

when running a 3.0-rc6 under Xen as 32-bit guest (I don't see this issue
when running a 64-bit guest) and when I've more than two CPUs under the guest.

I've tried the patch below against 3.0-rc6 and it did not fix the issue.

I've also tried to use 3.0-rc3 as somewhere in thread one of the reporters mentioned
that it worked for me - but that did not help me.

The config is a Fedora Core based. The stack traces of the four CPUs look
as follow:

CPU0:

  [<c04455db>] __do_softirq 
  [<c040a52d>] do_softirq+0x5a 

The full config is http://darnok.org/xen/config-rcu-stall
The full bootup log is http://darnok.org/xen/log-rcu-stall

Any thoughts of what I ought to try? I don't know if there is some missing functionality
in the RCU patches to work under Xen.... Any older version of Linux kernel
you would like me to try?
