Great thanks. These are the ones we picked as the rest was a bit tricky to
apply on 5.10.
While at it, we see these errors too though they look harmless. They happen
all the time
[ 595.292685] NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #02!!!"}
[ 595.301467] NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"}
[ 595.389353] NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"}
[ 595.397454] NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"}
[ 595.417112] NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"}
[ 595.425215] NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"}
[ 595.438807] NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"}
I used to see them on mainline a while back but seem to have been fixed.
Something didn't get backported to 5.10 perhaps?
It might be a question to Frederic actually..
Thanks!
