Subject: BUG: soft lockup in kernel
Hi,
Before I get started, pardon me for the pretty old kernel i.e. 2.6.23
but this is in the field now so can't upgrade right away.
This is x86_64 system
This issue happens intermittently when the faulting cpu is in the
interrupt context.
Here is the bug trace:

number of interrupts serviced on this cpu
softirq_count = 3134,
do_softirq_tot_count = 2040
this number is high compared to other cpus at the time of lockup.
Strangely, at the time of lockup, the irq stack frame says that cpu_idle
routine was getting executed.
The CPU 16 stack trace is as below:

I don't know whether this is correct backtrace but don't know what is
going wrong here. None of the dump refers to any clue at least to me
:)
Any ideas?
