Hi Meelis, it seems the p4 pmu is guilty here. I suspect
if you pass nmi_watchdog=0 or nowatchdog in boot line this
eliminate (or rather shut down) the problem for you.

Though Don was reporting this problem as well (CC'ed) and
at moment we didn't find the key reason why it's happening.
The problem is under investigation stage.
