    This isn't a performance problem. This is a bug. It vaguely sounds like
    a missed wakeup or missing setting of TIF_NEED_RESCHED, but could be a
    number of other things too.

    (The missing setting of TIF_NEED_RESCHED theory is right if it's
    possible to clean up after it by ignoring need_resched() in the
    scheduler and always rescheduling.)
