A couple of additional questions:

1.	Is the test running on bare metal or virtualized?  If the
	latter, what is the host?

2.	Does the workload involve CPU hotplug?

3.	Are you seeing things like this in dmesg?

	"rcu_preempt kthread starved for 21033 jiffies"
	"rcu_sched kthread starved for 32103 jiffies"
	"rcu_bh kthread starved for 84031 jiffies"

	If not, you are probably facing some other bug, and should
	proceed debugging as described in Documentation/RCU/stallwarn.txt.

							Thanx, Paul
