I'm just guessing: the scheduler isn't yet functional when spawn_ksoftirqd is called.
The scheduler is fully functional, this isn't what is going wrong.
Look at my other email from last night. At this point in the booting process, what would we possibly switch to if ksoftirqd is in running state constantly? No other kernel thread is of a higher priority if the only things running are the idle threads and ksoftird. This is basically what I think is happening on sparc32.
Right?
