Does this patch (in -next) help?

commit c583bcb8f5edd48c1798798e341f78afb9bf4f6f

    rcu: Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled
    
    The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function requires that
    interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts disabled from
    rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not enabled as expected"
    diagnostic.  This commit therefore updates rcu_print_task_stall()
    to accumulate a list of the first few tasks while holding the current
    leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock, then releases that lock and only then
    uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to attempt to obtain per-task
    detailed information.  Of course, as soon as ->lock is released, the
    task might exit, so the get_task_struct() function is used to prevent
    the task structure from going away in the meantime.
