Sorry for that, I removed that line from the patch in my queue but the
sent version still had it…

So CPU5 & CPU52 were eating 100% CPU doing "nothing" instead of running
cc1 & objdump right?
According to the backtrace both of them are trying to access the
per-cpu hrtimer (sched_timer) in order to cancel but they seem to fail
to get the timer lock here. They shouldn't spin there for minutes, I
have no idea why they did so…
I guess this problem does not occur without -RT and before that patch
you saw only that one warning from can_stop_full_tick()?
