I don't have a patch, but if you are still seeing lots of workqueue lockups before the RCU CPU stall warning, I again suggest adding the backtrace as called out in my earlier email. The idea here is to see what is causing these lockups. I can send a formal patch for this if you wish, but today is crazy, so I cannot promise it before this evening, Pacific Time. Thanx, Paul
