Well, as a starter, if you can reproduce it on a system (I cannot),
then try to stick a few printks in there to print out the affinity
mask as it gets changed plus dump_stack(), and see who changes it
back?
Chances are it's irqbalanced? If not then the stack dump will tell. It
shouldn't be too chatty.
(trace_printk() if you prefer traces.)
Thanks,
Ingo
