hm, you still havent applied the other 4 patches i sent: softlockup-fix.patch softlockup-add-irq-regs-h.patch softlockup-better-printout.patch softlockup-cleanups.patch softlockup-use-cpu-clock.patch they are all necessary. softlockup-use-cpu-clock.patch could easily solve the present problem you have: as i pointed it out it is _wrong_ to use sched_clock(), because sched_clock() is not a reliable clocksource. Especially on your VAIO.
