Lockdep warned about the above sequences because rw_semaphore is a fair
read-write lock, and the following can cause a deadlock:
TASK 1 TASK 2 TASK 3
====== ====== ======
down_write(mmap_lock);
down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem)
down_write(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // blocked
down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // cannot get the lock because of the fairness
down_read(mmap_lock); // blocked
IOW, a reader can block another read if there is a writer queued by the
second reader and the lock is fair.
So there is a deadlock possiblity.
