So this is the following code in rb_next():

>    4:	f9400401 	ldr	x1, [x0, #8]    // Offset 8 in @node
>    8:	b4000141 	cbz	x1, 0x30
	if (node->rb_right) {

>    c:	aa0103e0 	mov	x0, x1          // Saves node::rb_right
		node = node->rb_right;

		while (node->rb_left)

which obviously crashes. Now the question is how does the original node
end up with node::rb_right == 0x80?

I doubt that this is a hrtimer or rbtree problem. It smells like random
data corruption caused by whatever. It might not even be an ARM64
specific issue though the C repro does not trigger on x86...

Handing it over to Catalin and Will.
