Okay. Now we have a backstrace. Better. Now there is an option named
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO which resolves a number like 0xffffffff81501a58 to
the function name. Without it enabled, the backtrace is of no use to me.

However, in this case you triggered the warning in tick-sched.c. The
good news is that FULL-NO-HZ mode is not available because your TSC is
unstable and this is all the backtrace is about so it is harmless. You
should see it even without -RT enabled. The bad news is that I don't
think that this has anything to do with your SATA problem.
