Unfortunatelly I don't because the machine where I saw those didn't have
a serial console and the traces where scrolling like crazy. Anyway I am
working on reproducing this. Linux next is hard to debug due to
unrelated crashes so I am still with my -mm git tree.

Anyway, I was able to reproduce one of those hangs which smells like the
same/similar issue:

Sysrq+l doesn't show only idle CPUs. Ext4 is showing in the traces
because of CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23=y.
