With care ;-) Its most useful for recursive use of the same lock class, typically we only have 2 locks held and we can use the SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING thing.

And like said in the other email, be careful with lockdep annotations, you can actually annotate real deadlocks away. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
