is it BUG_ON(rq->nr_running != 0); in your sched.c?

hum, it's line #6134 in the recent sched.c version. So with the recent
version it was "kernel BUG at kernel/sched.c:6134!" right?

could you please try to get a crash with my additional debugging patch
(you may find it in this thread) applied?
We should see then all tasks that have been migrated (or failed to be
migrated) during migration_call(CPU_DEAD, ...).

TIA,
