Hmmm.

[ 2.739858] NULL pointer dereference at (null)
[ 2.747390] IP: [< (null)>] (null)
[ 2.752970] PGD 0
[ 2.755287] Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP

So this time the CPU branched to NULL. So let me recap.

First you had the explosion in the hrtimer code. After enabling debug
stuff it went to the timer_list and now it looks different again.

So that looks more like a random memory corruption.

Nasty to debug. And of course it does not reproduce here. I'll throw
your config at more machines in the hope that something will trigger
it.

Thanks,

tglx
