Subodh Nijsure (also CCed) reported something that might be similar on
ARM, and also reported that setting the following got rid of the stalls:

	CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=y
	CONFIG_CPU_IDLE_GOV_LADDER=y
	CONFIG_CPU_IDLE_GOV_MENU=y

At which point he was happy, which was good, but which also left the
underlying problem unsolved.  Do these affect your system?  If so,
do they cause a different ARM idle loop to be executed?
Will give this a try.  What board was Subodh using?
Any news on trying the above settings?
Sorry, haven't had the chance to try it yet due to the impending merge 
window opening.  Once things settle down I'll give it a try -- or maybe 
someone else can test it in the meantime.
