disables this message.

Could you please try disable the timeout message with

echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs

And during this wait (after message
"r5c_recovery_flush_data_only_stripes before wait_event"),
checks whether the raid disks (not the journal disk) are taking IOs
(using tools like iostat).

No activity on component drives.

To expand on that - while there is no i/o activity whatsoever at the component drives (as well as journal), the cpu is of course still fully loaded (5 days so far):
