Ok, for the other people too lazy to bother finding the picture:

  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=137353587012001&q=p3

So we bug at:

kernel/sched/core.c:519 assert_raw_spin_locked(&task_rq(p)->lock);

and get there through:

  resched_task()
  check_preempt_wakeup()
  check_preempt_curr()
  try_to_wake_up()
  autoremove_wake_function()
  __call_rcu_nocb_enqueue()
  __call_rcu()
  commit_creds()
  ____call_usermodehelper()
  ret_from_fork()

That don't make much sense though. Since:

  try_to_wake_up()
    ttwu_queue()
      raw_spin_lock(&rq->lock)
      ttwu_do_activate()
        ttwu_do_wakeup()
          check_preempt_curr()
            check_preempt_wakeup()
              resched_task(rq->curr)
                assert_raw_spin_locked(task_rq(p)->lock)

It would somehow mean that 'task_rq(rq->curr) != rq', that's completely
bonkers, we do after all have rq->lock locked.

I must also say that I've _never_ seen this bug before.
