Don't know how it works, but it sure looks like it does:
This:
spin_lock(&file->uobjects_lock);
down_read(&file->hw_destroy_rwsem);
up_read(&file->hw_destroy_rwsem);
spin_unlock(&file->uobjects_lock);
Causes:
[ 33.324729] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/rwsem.c:1444

And this:
spin_lock(&file->uobjects_lock);
might_sleep();
spin_unlock(&file->uobjects_lock);
Causes:

I think this is done in some very expensive way, so it probably only
works when lockdep is enabled..
