Could you also put the two BUG_ON lines into build_sched_groups()
[kernel/sched/core.c] wo/ the cpumask_clear() and setting
sg->sgc->capacity to 0 and share the possible crash output as well?

I can try a new build with this. I can probably get results back tomorrow
before I leave for work. The crashes happen too early in the boot process
for me to easily capture output as text. I can slow things down to take
pictures though.


That would be helpful. Thanks. I saw that you have CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG enabled.

Well that didn't help much. It still crashed. Taking pictures didn't get a good capture. I wasn't able to use boot_delay to slow things down, as even a small value resulted in me only seeing one line of output before giving up after a minute or two. I used a serial console to slow things down, but it isn't enough to make it easy to take pictures with the camera I had. The crash was someplace inside the scheduler, but I don't know if there were messages from the BUG_ON lines.
