I must confess that I am unfamiliar with this hardware, for whatever

I see something similar in post-4.1 mainline, but only when CPU hotplug
is enabled and only under extreme stress. Which is probably not the
case during your boot-up. But please see below.

The "stalling" CPU is idle, which is a quiescent state and therefore
should not stall grace periods. But please see below...

The reason that the idle CPU is not being recognized as a legitimate
quiescent state is that the rcu_preempt grace-period kthread is not
being allowed to run. In fact, it has not been permitted to run for more
than 26 seconds. Despite the fact that in this situation, it would have
invoked wait_event_interruptible_timeout() with a three-jiffy timeout.
One thing to do is to modify the rcu_check_gp_kthread_starvation()
function to print the value of rsp->gp_kthread, then to also print
fields from the resulting pointer to task_struct to see what the thread
is up to. (It is tempting to suspect that this kthread might never have
been spawned, but in that case the grace period would not have started.)
For example, add the following in the "if (j - gpa > 2 * HZ)"
body:
if (rsp->gp_kthread)
sched_show_task(rsp->gp_kthread);
Don't forget to add the "{" "}" to accommodate the additional statement
within the "if" statement.
If the additional output shows that the rcu_preempt kthread is runnable,
the next question is "why is it not running?". If the output instead
shows that the task is blocked, the next question is "why didn't the
wait_event_interruptible_timeout() awaken it?
Thanx, Paul
