SubjectRe: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU from 4.4-rc4, since 3.17
From
Still seeing these rcu_preempt stalls on kernels through to 4.4-rc7

Still have not found a sure fire method to evoke this stall, but have
found that it will normally occur within a week of running a kernel -
usually when it is quiet with light load.

Have seen similar self detected stalls all the way back to 3.17.
Most recent kernels have included 4.4-rc5 4.4-rc6 and 4.4-rc7

Regards,

Ross
