jFTR, for the sake of anyone who lives on older kernels and happen to
deal with the same issue as reported by Balasubramani in this thread,
after enabling cpuidle [2-3] on R-Car H3ULCB (which seems to be a hard
prerequisite for seeing this issue reproduced), I got below [4,5,6]
backtraces on recent v5.3-12025-g4c07e2ddab5b using various intermittent
stress-ng loads. I believe they portray the issue reported by Bala.

I was not able to reproduce the RCU stalls after applying [1].
