I disabled hyperthreading and things started working, so are there any
HT related scheduling bugs right now?


There haven't been any scheduler changes for some time. There have been a
few low-level SMT changes I think.

Are you able to identify which kernel version broke it?


Still have not narrowed this down too far, disabling SMT made no
difference, disabling SMP did, which I was expecting.
