This is definitely a *different* bug - I just tried the next kernel,
and started to get these messages (almost 100,000 lines of them in
the next 4 minutes) : if that had been happening a couple of weeks
ago, I would have noticed ;-)

But, the end result is that I cannot attempt to bisect the lockups,
this scheduling while atomic business is preventing me looking for a
good kernel.

Has anybody had success qith qemu on an x86_64 host running a 4.2-rc
kernel ?  Looks as if I'll have to give up, and hope that the main
problem doe not spread to 4.1.
