Hi,

Kernel Oops, followed by kernel panic seen while running rcutorture test on 4.8.0 kernel
Machine Type : PowerPC Bare Metal

RCU torture test steps:
1. modprobe rcutorture
2. start CPU offline and online while torture test is running

dmesg start flooded with Oops messages following kernel panic resulted in machine reboot.
