I have a proposed fix. I seem to have caused a pre-existing problem to
show up. Please see if the attached works for you, and I'll send it
to a lot of people.
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] init/main: Clear boot task idle flag
Initial booting was setting the task flag to idle (PF_IDLE) by the call
path sched_init() -> init_idle(). Having the task idle and calling
call_rcu() in kernel/rcu/tiny.c means that TIF_NEED_RESCHED will be
enabled. Subsequent calls to any cond_resched() will enable IRQs,
potentially earlier than the enabling of IRQs.
This causes a warning later in start_kernel() as interrupts are enabled
before the are fully set up.
Fix this issue by clearing the PF_IDLE flag on return from sched_init()
and restore the flag in rest_init().
