I haven't yet mulled over the above evidence carefully, but here are some basic questions anyway. - Does the latest squeeze kernel exhibit the same problem? How about a sid kernel? - Does 2.6.32-29 (available on snapshot.debian.org) behave the same way? - Does backing out the patch "x86, hotplug: Use mwait to offline a processor, fix the legacy case" that Frédéric mentioned[1] help?
