i tried your config and after a few bootups the warning did trigger.
It's the new resource counter code. The IRQ flags disabling it does
seems a bit dubious to me. Peter, what do you think?
Frederic, could you try the patch below?

The reason is the raw IRQ flag use of kernel/res_counter.c.
The irq flags tricks there seem a bit pointless: it cannot
protect the c->parent linkage because local_irq_save() is
only per CPU.
So replace it with _nort(). This code needs a second look.
