I can constantly see below error report with 4.1 RT-kernel on TI ARM dra7-evm
if I'm trying to unplug cpu1:

[   57.737589] CPU1: shutdown

The reason is that skb_dequeue is taking skb->lock, but RT changed the
core code to use a raw spinlock. The non-raw lock is not initialized
on purpose to catch exactly this kind of problem.
