I ran this patch in my KVM guest with some netpoll test cases, even covered with some corner cases, everything worked as expected. BTW, my kernel config enables the following validatation options: CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT=60 CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=y CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR=y Cc: "David S.
