@smaeul Thanks for this patch and all the other work you've done on the A64/PinePhone.
I have tested the patched kernel on all 5 of the PinePhone mainboards that were having the rcu errors. All passed without any errors, two boards I ran timer_test for 720 passes (about 24hours) with no errors.
How long do you think it will take for this patch to go live in the main PinePhone distributions? I suspect a lot of people's problems with instability will be fixed by this. I have a 40% failure rate without this patch, 5 out of 12 PinePhone mainboards. 3 boards are really bad, 2 from eBay, I suspect those users gave up on the PinePhone because of the constant crashing.
