See ("sched/core: Require cpu_active() in select_task_rq(), for user tasks") Fix it like so? sched: Allow pinned user tasks to be awakened to the CPU they pinned Since 7af443ee16976, select_fallback_rq() will BUG() if the CPU to which a task has pinned itself and pinned becomes !cpu_active() while it slept. Serving a 10 megaton eviction notice is neither helpful nor required, the task will migrate when it can do so.
