I observed this too; and it is very easy to reproduce.
Here is the log:

The above warning is related to the reschedule IPI sent to an offline cpu.
I guess this is due to the recent changes done to nohz_balancer_kick() and
find_new_ilb() in kernel/sched/fair.c. I had never seen this warning before
3.3 merge window, even during CPU Hotplug stress tests. Now this warning
is seen pretty often during CPU offline.
