Perf defconfig works fine. You need to enable serial console with below
config added to perf defconfig.

CONFIG_SERIAL_MSM_GENI_CONSOLE=y

Seems like interrupts are disabled when down_write_killable() is called.
It's not the drivers that is calling the sleeping method which can  be
seen from the log.

I doubt the *IPIPE patches*. You said you removed the configs, but all
code are not under IPIPE configs and as I see there are lots of
changes to interrupt code in general with ipipe.

So to actually confirm whether the issue is with qcom drivers or ipipe,
please *remove ipipe patches (not just configs)* and boot.
Also paste the full dmesg logs for these 2 cases(with and without
ipipe).

Thanks,
Sai
