That seems to have the same result (same test setup) as only reverting "rcu: Don't invoke..." does: still results in a bunch of workqueue lockup warnings and RCU stall warnings, but boots to user space. I attached a log. If the warnings are expected (are they?), then it looks fine to me. (And just in case: with "rcu: Don't invoke..." and "sched/core: Allow..." both applied I still get DEADLOCKs -- but that's probably expected.) Thanks, -- Marco
