The problem is more serious than I thought:

kthread_create() in crypto/cryptd.c line 302 doesn't return, so cryptd is stuck
in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE all the time and it doesn't even execute one
instruction from cryptd_thread() [this happens on x86_64].

I've investigated this for a while, but I don't know why it happens.
