./arch/x86/include/asm/msr-trace.h:47 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!
other info that might help us debug this:
RCU used illegally from idle CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
no locks held by swapper/3/0.
stack backtrace:

Move the entering_irq() call before ack_APIC_irq(), because entering_irq()
tells the RCU susbstems to end the extended quiescent state, so that the
following trace call in ack_APIC_irq() works correctly.

This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled x86/apic: Fix suspicious RCU usage in smp_trace_call_function_interrupt() to the linux-4.2.y-queue branch of the 4.2.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-4.2.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 4.2.8-ckt7. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 4.2.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From a9296ca04a920a5936379ec57a8f7df58f34e1e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2016 21:20:54 -0400 Subject: x86/apic: Fix suspicious RCU usage in smp_trace_call_function_interrupt() commit 7834c10313fb823e538f2772be78edcdeed2e6e3 upstream.
