definitely not OOT.....my comment: when a task is going to 100% CPU utilization....perhaps u can do a "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger", which immediately can show the CURRENT stack trace of all task in dmesg (truncated, so look into /var/log/messages for full dump). "CURRENT" is important, as it is dynamically changing all the time, but if it get stuck at some interruptible lock, it can be easily visible as the stack trace is rarely changing.
