commit 8ac0e6641c7ca14833a2a8c6f13d8e0a435e535c upstream.
When run stress tests with RXE, the following Call Traces often occur
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 22s! [swapper/2:0] ... Call Trace: <IRQ> create_object+0x3f/0x3b0 kmem_cache_alloc_node_trace+0x129/0x2d0 __kmalloc_reserve.isra.52+0x2e/0x80 __alloc_skb+0x83/0x270 rxe_init_packet+0x99/0x150 [rdma_rxe] rxe_requester+0x34e/0x11a0 [rdma_rxe] rxe_do_task+0x85/0xf0 [rdma_rxe] tasklet_action_common.isra.21+0xeb/0x100 __do_softirq+0xd0/0x298 irq_exit+0xc5/0xd0 smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x68/0x120 apic_timer_interrupt+0xf/0x20 </IRQ> ...
The root cause is that tasklet is actually a softirq. In a tasklet handler, another softirq handler is triggered. Usually these softirq handlers run on the same cpu core. So this will cause "soft lockup Bug".
