Have you heard anything about that one yet or it's still to be
debugged ? It probably hit upstream by now.
Haven't received any response yet.
As you mentioned that patch went upstream and so did the problem.
thanks

After some debugging a possible suspect seems to be commit
6ad4c18.. : sched: Fix balance vs hotplug race
If i revert this patch i am able to execute the tests on this
power6 without any issues.
But at the same time the above patch is required to solve the
cpu hotplug related race on x86_64(as a side note this same
x86_64 issue can be recreated against latest Linus git as well)
that i reported here :
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125802682922299&w=2
I will try few more iterations with and without the above
patch just to make sure i have the correct results.
If someone has a suggestion let me know.
Thanks
