One interesting thing that I noted in that case was that we noticed that
(stale) interrupt exactly at the call to local_irq_restore() in
stop_machine_cpu_stop().
However, as Peter pointed out, migration_call's CPU_DYING notifier runs
right in the middle of the stop machine dance, much much before the call
to local_irq_restore().. so it doesn't look like a case of a stale interrupt
being recognized.. it looks as if the sequence of local_irq_disable(),
hard_irq_disable() and __cpu_disable() somehow managed to wrongly keep the
interrupts still enabled...
