I let it run for longer and I ended up with more and more processes
stuck in synchronize_rcu(). No more backtraces because the system
has no console and is now not able to write to disk anymore.

So it seems like there's something broken with RCU & cpu hotplug
in 2.6.28rc8. cc Paul.

It's probably not the scheduler, sorry for blaming it earlier.
