Hi,

I am observing following rcu_sched stall while executing `perf record -a --
sleep 1` with one of the arm64 platform. It looks like that stalled cpu was
waiting in csd_lock_wait() from where it never came out,and so the stall.
Any help/pointer for further debugging would be very helpful. Problem also
reproduced with 4.13.0-rc3.

I'm sitting on this patch:

please give that a spin.

Thanks for the pointer.
Tried, but it did not help.
