Is there some configuration thing that might make it happen for Alexey but 
not for you? The only obvious one is the normal PREEMPT thing, but 
PREEMPT_RCU obviously depends on that, so there must be something else.

CONFIG_SMP? CONFIG_NO_HZ? CONFIG_[RT|FAIR]_GROUP_SCHED? There's a number 
of config options that change scheduling details..
