Ok, that didn't take long. 4 hours in, and I hit it on rc7 with 8aac6270 reverted.
So that's the 2nd commit I've mistakenly blamed for this bug.

Crap. I'm going to have to redo the bisecting, and give it a whole day
at each step to be sure. That's going to take a while.

Anyone got any ideas better than a week of non-stop bisecting ?

What I've gathered so far:

- Only affects two machines I have (both Intel Quad core Haswell, one with SSD, one with hybrid SSD)
- One machine is XFS, the other EXT4.
- When the lockup occurs, it happens on all cores.
- It's nearly always a sync() call that triggers it looking like this..

I'll work on trying to narrow down what trinity is doing. That might at least
make it easier to reproduce it in a shorter timeframe.
