Public bug reported:
Apologize in advance is anything is missing from this bug report.
After upgrading to 4.4.0-45 we have started to experience random kernel
lockups. I have attached a sample from the syslog which I managed to
catch after one of these events. In other cases, nothing was written to
the syslog.
I notice that the cgroup system features here and there in the log, and
the hanging server uses cgroups and namespaces heavily, so I suspect it
is related. Sadly I don't know enough of the kernel to decipher the
error I got further than that.
Another unusual thing we do on this server, which may possibly be
related, is that we regularly clear the caches ("echo 3 >
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches")
