I met this problem when using the Testgine to send package to ixgbevf nic
by this steps:
1. Connect to ixgbevf, and set the speed to 10Gb/s, it could work fine.
2. Then use ifconfig to down the nic and up again, loop for several times.
3. The system panic by soft lockup.

==================================cut here==============================

Then I check the rcuos thread rcu_nocb_kthread, it will invokes callbacks queued
by the corresponding no-CBs cpu, in the loops, it will disable the local irq and
enable again, in the local_bh_enable() it will call do_softirq() to deal the package
in the recv queue, it looks takes long time, so add cont_sched to feed the
watchdog to fix the problem.
