Ok - I'll also be running with the recent sched fork vs. hotplug vs. 
cpuset namespaces patch (commit 
fabf318e5e4bda0aca2b0d617b191884fda62703) from tip. Without that I get 
an rcu hang.

My plan then is to run with your patch, the rcu patch & the dma debug 
patch, but disable dma debug for now and see of the problem recurs. If 
it works, I'll know in a couple of days. If not, perhaps sooner :(.
