I freely confess that I am having a hard time imagining what would
be CPU dependent in that code. Timing, maybe? Whatever the reason,
I am not seeing these failures in my testing.
So which of the following Kconfig options is defined in your .config?
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU, CONFIG_TASKS_RUDE_RCU, and CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU.
If you have more than one of them, could you please apply this patch
and show me the corresponding console output from the resulting hang?
Thanx, Paul

commit 709a917710dc01798e01750ea628ece4bfc42b7b

rcu-tasks: Add printk()s to localize boot-time self-test hang
Currently, rcu_tasks_initiate_self_tests() prints a message and then
initiates self tests on up to three different RCU Tasks flavors. If one
of the flavors has a grace-period hang, it is not easy to work out which
of the three hung. This commit therefore prints a message prior to each
individual test.
