Got this soft lockup with latest 3.6.6 patch (as well as the patch from 11/05) on Debian Squeeze 64-bit. It only happens during shutdown/reboot, and never does recover. It also seems to only happen if the ACL system is enabled. This box is doing nothing besides serving iSCSI via the LIO stack.
It's long and apparently hitting the post limit. There's more for gradm -D/-R, so I'll post again. I didn't want to leave out any output that might be useful.
