We are trying to test the patchset on x86 and are getting strange backtraces and aborts. It seems that the cpu before the cpu we are running on creates an irq_work event that causes a latency event on the next cpu. This is weird. Is there a new round robin IPI feature in the kernel that I am not aware of?
