=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.26-rc8 #32
-------------------------------------------------------
umount/4921 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&ei->i_data_sem){----}, at: [<c01dd2c1>] ext4_get_blocks_wrap+0x29/0x120

but task is already holding lock:
 (&type->s_lock_key#7){--..}, at: [<c0169211>] lock_super+0x1b/0x1d

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

       [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff

other info that might help us debug this:

2 locks held by umount/4921:
 #0:  (&type->s_umount_key#17){----}, at: [<c0169b5e>] deactivate_super+0x52/0x6a
 #1:  (&type->s_lock_key#7){--..}, at: [<c0169211>] lock_super+0x1b/0x1d
