John, the soft lockup daemon does not work with virtualized cpus. It uses the wall clock time to check if the processor is stuck. If the hypervisor (LPAR or z/VM) has scheduled away the guest cpu the soft lockup daemon will give you false positives. Please disable softlockup, unless you run the guest on dedicated processors.
