Last night it seemed very unwilling to reproduce properly, but I did get a
period of repeatedly stalling/unstalling so I grabbed a shot of that. You can
see RC6 is around 95%. I'll try to get a proper shot next time it reproduces
correctly

Conveniently, the one time last night it reproduced the bug properly, I had
*just* finished compiling perf. So, I've attached the output of "perf record -g
-a sleep 2" (gzipped for size) as well as a repeat of that command later on
when it was behaving itself.

Sadly, as discussed above, it refused to reproduce properly after I installed
powertop. I'll try to watch for this tonight.
