x86-tip.today: flood of WARNING: at include/linux/sched.h:2238run_posix_cpu_timers+0xea/0x79f()

[Mike Galbraith]

Greetings,

Futzing with kerneltop this morning, I fired up amarok to give it
something light to monitor while I hunt missing events.  Something bad
happened, and when I finally (SysRq-E took minutes) got control of box
back, dmesg was full of a steady stream of the below.

That warning can be kinda unfriendly.
