So it's the dynticks_nesting going crazy. As if we had rcu_irq_enter()
without rcu_irq_exit().
I see you have CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS=y
and the locking api selftest is doing a strange thing: if we look
at HARDIRQ_ENTER(), it calls irq_enter(), but HARDIRQ_EXIT() only
calls __irq_exit(). Which means it lacks the rcu_irq_exit().
So, if I understood correctly the thing there, some selftests simulating
the hardirq context are unbalancing the rcu state.
Does that help if you unset CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS ?
