IMHO the lockup is due to the fact we uselocal_irq_disable()but it
should be done more globally. I believe you may still have some lockup
still.
i didn't, but that might be pure chance. :-) so does one have to disable the interrupts on both siblings of a HT CPU seperately? i just don't know how this works.
thanks,
