this one does:
mutex_lock(&ops->reg_mutex);
...
list_for_each(head, &ops->dev_list) {
struct snd_seq_device *dev = list_entry(head, struct snd_seq_device, list);

mutex_unlock(&ops->reg_mutex);
[<c0333537>] init_device+0x2c/0x94
which calls into the driver

and this one does
mutex_lock(&ops->reg_mutex);
list_add_tail(&dev->list, &ops->dev_list);
ops->num_devices++;
mutex_unlock(&ops->reg_mutex);
so... on first sight this looks like a real deadlock;
unless the ALSA folks can tell me why "ops" is always different,
and what the lock ordering rules between those is...
