Do you have DEBUG_OBJECTS_WORK and DEBUG_OBJECTS_FREE enabled?

If yes, then I'm completely puzzled why we find the timer in the
tracking objects, but not the delayed work itself.

Find a more brute force method to get this decoded below. Full patch
this time, please zap the old one. That should spill out the recent
debug object calls and we can just hope, that we get enough history to
find this horror.

Please add "ftrace_dump_on_oops" to the kernel command line. No other
trace related options required.

Btw, can you send me your .config file, so I might try to reproduce.

Thanks,

	tglx
