This "DN2800MT" looks like an Atom board from 2012; are you trying to 
run a very large bandwidth through it? I think it's plausible that 
buffering could cause a large enough chunk of work for a slow CPU that 
the kernel could erroneously think that the code is stuck. I don't know 
why that would happen on the tx thread though, or why it would result in 
an RCU stall, seeing as only a single access is made under an RCU lock 
in this function...
