Actually the problem might not be the change to tasklet_kill() but the
change to tasklet_unlock_wait().
include/linux/interrupt.h:

Can you add a printk before that while loop?

That's the first thing I did: the printk before tasklet_kill succeeds,
the one right after the tasklet_kill doesn't. Lee Revell wrote:
Can you add debug printk's before and after tasklet_kill() in
ohci1394_unregister_iso_tasklet to see where it locks up?

Can you reproduce the problem on a non-RT kernel?
No, it only occurs with RT kernels, and only with those configured for
PREEMPT_RT. If I use PREEMPT_DESKTOP, there is no problem. (with
threaded IRQ's etc... only switched over the preemption level in the
kernel config).
I've uploaded the photo's of the panic here:

both are of suboptimal quality unfortunately, but all info is readable
on one or the other.
