I may have found the issue: It looks like the hunk that initially 
disables interrupts in load_balance_newidle() was inadvertently 
applied to load_balance() instead during the merge to linux-tip.  If 
you fold the following patch into my original patch, it should set 
things right again.

ah, sorry - indeed! I've reactivated your patch and i'm testing it 
now.

-tip testing found that it still hangs at:

I was not able to reproduce the hang by taking sched/devel/HEAD, my patch, and your
config (or any config for that matter).  We will have to back-burner this patch for now
until I can think of a way to figure out what is wrong here.  Sorry for the troubles.
