Using the previous "Idle dynticks system (tickless idle)" solves the problem, so it seems the new Full dynticks code is causing this. Maybe Ingo Molnar can help to debug this (I put this in Power Management, but if it should be in other area, please change). My desktop is: Asus P8Z68-V Pro/Gen3 Core i7 2700k 8GB RAM Feel free to suggest how can I debug this to help you. I can try patches if you want.
