Stefan, here's the Arch Linux kernel package tree:

They build from a release tarball on kernel.org with only 4 patches applied (none of which touch scheduling or anything autogroup-related). The only reason I can think of for Arch Linux not crashing and burning here is that their config is different in just the right way to not trigger the issue. For instance:

# CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS is not set

That might be the reason Arch Linux is unaffected right there!
