[banon] "rcu_preempt detected" present in most "hung_task" kcrash reports

Project Member Reported by grundler@chromium.org, Jan 12

Issue description

It's not clear yet how this is related to issue 907329 "[banon]: oom-killer invoked but "refused to die" and eventually hung task panic".

For Banon(11151.59.0 release), 6407 of 8066 kcrash reports (as of 2019.01.09) are (mis-)categorised as "hung_task" (should mostly be in "oom" kernel bucket).  Of the 6407, 5454 also have "rcu_preempt detected" around the same time.


from hung_tasks/upload_file_kcrash-7a7bf38bd749918c.kcrash:
...

...

5261/5454 have "Stall ended before state dump start" - so no additional info for the stall.
I can help find info on the ~200 where there should be stack trace if necessary.


Also, 2072 of 6407 hung tasks have "INFO: task shill ..." as the hung task.
That seems a bit high to be a coincidence - there could be additional problems with shill.
 
The issue in upload_file_kcrash-7a7bf38bd749918c.kcrash is similar to that in:
https://crbug.com/907329#c13

If some task is stuck in spin lock, it may trigger "rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks".

Let's wait and see if it's resolved by https://crrev.com/c/1394463
