Description Joe 2020-07-24 14:57:52 UTC
After upgrading our systems from 5.3.x to 5.4.51 we started experiencing problems where some processes would enter an uninterruptible sleep state. 

We do not have a swap enabled or a swap mount point.

We have tried updating to 5.7.10 and still experience the same issue. Downgrading to 5.3.x fixes the problem.

Looking through dmesg we found the following error message:
