SubjectRCU stalls in merge-window (v3.3-6946-gf1d38e4)
From

I've been running xfstests of my ext4 dev branch merged in with
v3.3-6946-gf1d38e3 --- the latest from Linus's tree as of this morning
--- as a last minute check before sending a pull request to Linus, and
I'm seeing that xfstests #76 is quite reliably causing an rcu_sched
self-detecting stall warning, followed by a wedged kernel.

A quick web search shows that Dan Carpenter noticed a similar problem
about two weeks ago, but there was no follow-up as far as I could tell:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/13/360

Since Dan reported that "light e-mail and the occasional git pull" on
his netbook is sufficient to reproduce this problem, it seems rather
serious...

Any updates on this issue?
