Hi Rafael,

could you provide more informations for this, please?

What is your kernel configuration?
Do you have any binary only modules (nvidia?) loaded?

Is it possible to recreate the bug by e.g. just doing something like

echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

(or any other online cpu)? Or does it trigger any lockdep warnings?
