This one was due the the CPU's idea of the current time getting way
out of sync (as in more than a minute's worth of disagreement, which is
pretty impressive when you think about it).  So what happened is that
one CPU decided that the current grace period was a full minute old
immediately, and thus started screaming piteously.  John Stultz provided
a configuration workaround, and he and Thomas Gleixner would be working
out the long-term fix.
