That's probably something related to apic congestion.
Does the problem go away if the only thing you change is this:
@@ -891,11 +897,6 @@ do_rest:
store_NMI_vector(&nmi_high, &nmi_low);
smpboot_setup_warm_reset_vector(start_ip);

Please let me know.
Hello Glauber,
I have rebooted the server with 2.6.27.1 + this patchlet an hour ago.
No problems since.
Hardware: Compaq P4 Xeon server, Broadcom CMIC-WS / CIOB-X2 board.
Tell me if you need more detailed information.
There's a patch in flight from cyrill that probably fixes your problem:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/15/93
The checks are obviously there for a reason, and we can't just wipe
them out unconditionally ;-) So can you check please that you are also
covered by the case provided?

The issue I see still occurs well before those changesets. I have
seen it with v2.6.25 but v2.6.24 survived for 7 days without issue
(my threshold for a good kernel is 7 days, hence bisecting is a bit
slow...).
Hello Ian,
it seems we're hunting down different bugs after all. Too bad, I
hoped I could have solved your problem, too. Our machine has been
running well over the weekend with the patch I posted; with faulty
kernels, the problem would occur after a few minutes.
