Hi all,
Changes since 20180731:
The pci tree gained a conflict against the pci-current tree.
The net-next tree gained a conflict against the bpf tree.
The block tree lost its build failure.
The staging tree still had its build failure due to an interaction
with
the vfs tree for which I disabled CONFIG_EROFS_FS.
The kspp tree lost its build failure.

The widespread kernel hang issues are still seen. I managed
to bisect it after working around the transient build failures.
Bisect log is attached below. Unfortunately, it doesn't help much.
The culprit is reported as:
2d542828c5e9 Merge remote-tracking branch 'scsi/for-next'
The preceding merge,
453f1d821165 Merge remote-tracking branch 'cgroup/for-next'
checks out fine, as does the tip of scsi-next (commit 103c7b7e0184,
"Merge branch 'misc' into for-next"). No idea how to proceed.
This sounds like you may have a problem with this patch:
commit d5038a13eca72fb216c07eb717169092e92284f1
Author: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@xxxxxxx>

scsi: core: switch to scsi-mq by default
To verify, boot with the additional kernel parameter
scsi_mod.use_blk_mq=0
Which will reverse the effect of the above patch.
Yes, that fixes the problem.
That may not the root cause, given this issue is only started to
see from next-20180731, but d5038a13eca7 (scsi: core: switch to
scsi-mq by default)
has been in -next for quite a while.
Seems something new causes this issue.
Agreed. I should have said "fixes the symptom". I'll try to bisect
with scsi_mod.use_blk_mq=1 as suggested by James.
