The above explanation is enough. No need for this backtrace.
Ok, I'll drop it in v2.
So your reproducer does:
while true; do echo 0 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online; echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online; done
right?
Yes, but on a kernel booted with clocksource=jiffies.
Can you and Srikanth please run that on top to validate that we don'tI ran my patch with your delta in the same guest and it holds up well.
end up with that?
No hang and no "stalled" warning (even though the remote read timed out

Do you want the delta in v2? I can carry it as a separate patch from you
