Hi all, It appears that this deadlock has been reported a few times before: BZ here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215746 Patch here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211004180734.434511-1-desmondcheongzx@xxxxxxxxx/ A Google search turns up a few other instances too. This is the deadlock I ran into, on a ThinkPad T420s with kernel v5.18.5. I never ran into this with the kernel I previously had on here, v5.7.8.

Happy to provide any additional information, just let me know what you need. Cheers, Ilia Mirkin imirkin@xxxxxxxxxxxx
