Subject: WARNING: at kernel/rcutorture.c:1243 rcu_torture_printk

Greetings,

I got the below dmesg and the first bad commit is

commit 911af505ef407c2511106c224dd640f882f0f590
Author: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@...aro.org>
Date:   Mon Feb 11 10:23:27 2013 -0800

    rcu: Provide compile-time control for no-CBs CPUs
    
    Currently, the only way to specify no-CBs CPUs is via the rcu_nocbs
    kernel command-line parameter.  This is inconvenient in some cases,
    particularly for randconfig testing, so this commit adds a new set of
    kernel configuration parameters.  CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE (the default)
    retains the old behavior, CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ZERO offloads callback
    processing from CPU 0 (along with any other CPUs specified by the
    rcu_nocbs boot-time parameter), and CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL offloads
    callback processing from all CPUs.

However I guess it's a wrong bisect, the commit should be unmasking an
old bug because it merely provides more kconfig options.

This warning happened only once in 74 boots of the kernel.

I also attached the 2nd dmesg which shows boot hang for the same
kernel.

Note that there are also 2 kernel hangs in the 74 boots.  It should
not be an RCU problem, however for completeness, I also attach a dmesg
for your reference when considering this RCU warning.
