I have tried

Unfortunately it doesn't change anything.
I realised that this only reduces the time running with interrupts
disabled but won't solve the soft lockup.
Please try something like this
on tty1
isic -s rand -d your ip (http://www.packetfactory.net/Projects/ISIC/)
on tty2
kml_collector (http://www.stardust.webpages.pl/files/o_bugs/kml/ml/kml_collector.sh)
(I have tried to read random files from /sys on vanilla kernel, but I
can't reproduce that lockup)
Couldn't get it on my (embedded) platform but I think that's because
there are only a few reports in the memleak file. You have thousands
of reports and I think reading the memleak file is causing the soft
lockup.
Until we identify the leak (or false positive), you can use the
attached patch to supress the reports for context_struct_to_string.
Hopefully, this should eliminate the soft lockup as well.

Ignore the (real) leak report in context_struct_to_string
From: Catalin Marinas <[email protected]>
This might be a real leak but, because of the amount of information
kmemleak reports, we ignore it for now to allow testing of other parts of
kmemleak.
