Package: linux-image-6.12.6-amd64
Version: 6.12.6-1

Found a case where cpu freeze(100% usage) will occur.

(Tested)Environment:
CPU: 1 or 2 cores.
Memory: <= 1GB

Only tested in Virtual Machine(KVM).

Procedure:
1. Start iperf3 as server on the test machine.
2. On any client machine, start a reversed(download) test to the test machine.
To trigger the case, use 4 threads and 256k block size. Higer value slightly 
increase the chance.
3.Wait for iperf3 to run.
(4). After a few iteration or at test end, the server will stop responding and 
completly locked.(no kernel panic log, console just freeze)

From monitoring platform , the process contained the already freezed vm uses 
100% cpu(50% on 2 cores). Charts show the vm linearly increase memory usage to 
watermark point and never freed them(Because cpu is freezed ?).

Tested on vanilla debian 6.12 and xanmod(no debian patches) 6.12, both freezed.
Tested on xanmod 6.6, no such problem.
Tested on vanilla debian 6.1, no such problem.
