Could you please clarify some items:

1.
<snip>
if (!WARN_ON_ONCE(!poll_state_synchronize_rcu_full(&bnode->gp_snap))) {
debug_rcu_bhead_unqueue(bnode);
rcu_lock_acquire(&rcu_callback_map);
<snip>

Do you see this warning? I mean the one that is in the if()?

2. Please provide a full .config file.
3. Could you please also to be more specific how to reproduce a boot delay and the warning you see?
4. Please provide your full dmesg.

Thank you in advance!
