FWIW, I see a crash in autoremove_wake_function() during resume from suspend
to RAM that happens immediately before the thawing of tasks. It always happens
in the "events" thread. I can trigger it quite reliably, although not 100% of
the time.

I can only see the bottom half of the call trace, so I can't really say what
kind of a crash this is.

Also, for quite some time I've been observing a resume-from-hibernation crash
during the final switch from a VT to X that could also be explained by a
problem with "events".

Best,
Rafael
