I did take a look, and it seems that it all boils down to having too
small (unreasonable?) intervals in the schedule, which causes the
hrtimer handler to starve the other kernel threads.
I have a quick fix to restrict the interval values to more sensible
values (at least equal to the time it takes to transmit the mininum
ethernet frame size), I am testing it and I will propose it soon. But a
proper solution will require more time.
Cheers,
