I took a quick look and found all rtnl paths waiting on mutex_lock. The
stuck tasks were gnome-panel, ureadahead and workqueues (modprobe,
waiting on a lock).. I also found wpa_supplicant waiting on

[  240.393172]  [<c05739d5>] schedule_timeout+0x185/0x200

[  240.393228]  [<c01568b7>] call_usermodehelper_exec+0xc7/0xd0

The rtnl_lock() is held in wext_ioctl_dispatch() (from what I can see).

Observations

1. I don't see cgroup showing up anywhere in the stack

Questions

1. What is the user mode helper? It seems like it is holding/blocking
the rest of the system from making progress.

Can we please get the output of cat /proc/mounts and the cgroup
filesystem output, please?
