Subject: RCU stall leading to deadlock warning

Hi Paul

We hit the below splat a couple of days ago in our testing. Sadly I can't
reproduce it. And it was on android-mainline branch..

It's the deadlock message that bothers me. I can't see how we could have ended
there. We detect a stall and when trying to dump the stack LOCKDEP spits the
warning.

Maybe should take this report with a pinch of salt since it wasn't on mainline.
I just thought it might be something worth sharing in case you can actually
spot something obvious that I can't see. If I got more info or a reproducer
I will share them.

The failure was triggered twice on that day running 2 different tests.
