My first build of v3.7.2-rc1 panics at boot (on x86_64). I haven't
investigated in depth what happened, so this can even be something dumb
on my side during build. For what's worth the (last?) backtrace starts
with (copied manually):
WARNING at arch/x86/kernel/apic/ipi.c:113 default_send_IPI_mask_logical+0xde/0xf0().

But there seems to be preceding trouble.

I hope to dive in deeper later this day (perhaps I can catch this panic
over a serial line). Currently I have no idea what's going on.
