Yeah, it is not that easy to repro - I need to wait a couple of minutes
after it boots. Look at the timestamps:

[ 249.149378] INFO: task rcu_gp:3 blocked for more than 122 seconds.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

But it looks like sched/core is the culprit because merging it into
Linus master triggers it.

Lemme bisect that.

Stay tuned.
