Hi all,

While fuzzing with trinity I've recently observed a situation with has started
occurring rather frequently.

I have my configuration set to do a trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() before executing
panic(), and that's exactly what happens in some cases.

The new thing which I started seeing is the following:

[ 4806.833452] Kernel panic - not syncing: hung_task: blocked tasks

Without anything else to accompany it.


Thanks,
Sasha
