Colin had the hunch that this actually happens if the CPUs do *not* have
anything to do, i. e. want to go into a low freq/power state. We
successfully ran the full stress-ng test suite on the instance without
triggering any of this, but a few minutes after it was done it started
hung processes started to appear again.

We currently run a test whether booting with "nohz=off" works around
that. So far it has survived for some 30 minutes (which is very
promising).

This also has never triggered on a single-CPU instance (m1.small).
