ah, OK, I missed that one somehow.  It would also explain the 

[ 3971.156004] Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 21 on CPU 2.
[ 3971.162812] Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled?
[ 3971.169363] Dazed and confused, but trying to continue

messages I am getting.


I'm also still getting a lot of 
	perfevents: irq loop stuck!
messages, I thought the workaround for that had gone in for 4.2 but I 
guess not.
