Ouch, that looks like kjournald is unlocking a lock that it doesn't own?

hmm, here we are probably having trouble with the percpu slab locks,
that is somewhat of a hack to get slabs working on a per cpu basis.

It would also be nice to know exactly where ffffffff80271e93 is.

The rest was probably caused as a side effect from above.  The above is
already broken!

You have NUMA configured too, so this is also something to look at.

I still wouldn't ignore the first bug message you got:

----
BUG: scheduling while atomic: udev_run_devd/0x00000001/1568

Call Trace:
       <ffffffff8045c693>{__schedule+155}
       <ffffffff8045f156>{_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+53}
       <ffffffff80242241>{task_blocks_on_rt_mutex+518}
       <ffffffff80252da0>{free_pages_bulk+39}
       <ffffffff80252da0>{free_pages_bulk+39}
...
----

This could also have a side effect that messes things up.

Unfortunately, right now I'm assigned to other tasks and I cant spend
much more time on this at the moment.  So hopefully, Ingo, Thomas or
Bill, or someone else can help you find the reason for this problem.
