There's already a fix for this queued[1] in my for-linus branch for
v6.10.  The problem has indeed existed with lockdep for some time but
only with the recent lockdep changes to generate a warning regardless
of debug kernel settings has it gone from just sketchy to having a fire
under it.  There's still an outstanding question of whether we
can/should insert as many pfns as we can during the fault[2] to reduce
the new overhead and hopefully at some point we'll have an even cleaner
option to use huge_fault for pfnmaps, but currently
vmf_insert_pfn_{pmd,pud} don't work with those pfnmaps.

So hopefully this problem disappears on current linux-next, but let me
know if there's still an issue.  Thanks,

Alex
