Hello Peter,
I've emailed you before re. spurious hangs in the TTY layer, but at that time I was running a rather old (but LTS) 3.12 kernel. Now, I'm running a 4.4.10 and I still observe the following lock-ups. I have multiple processes which hang with the following callstack:

After debugging the memory dump of the server it turned out the following task is holding the mutex on which the sulogin is stuck:

But I also observed also the following hung-up task, waiting for read access:

I checked and all the tasks are working on the same tty_struct. Here is the state of the struct: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23273973/
To me this seems like a lost wakeup event, especially that I've seen patches flying around fixing such issues. Unfortunately I cannot reliably reproduce this and booting a production machine with lockdep would be problematic.
Regards, Nikolay
