[CentOS] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 36s! [swapper/0:0]

This bug is reported only on the VM's with CentOS 7 running on on VMware
ESXi 5.1.
The vSphere performance graph shows high CPU consume and disk activity only
on VM's with CentOS 7. Sometimes I can not connect remotely with ssh
(timeout error).


The details of last issues was reported to retrace.fedoraproject.org.

¿Do you have a hint?
