Don't get me wrong -- the fact that this kthread appears to have
blocked within rcu_barrier() for 120 seconds means that something is
most definitely wrong here.  I am surprised that there are no RCU CPU
stall warnings, but perhaps the blockage is in the callback execution
rather than grace-period completion.  Or something is preventing this
kthread from starting up after the wake-up callback executes.  Or...

Is this thing reproducible?
