In my DAX PMD regression testing I hit the lockdep splat at the end of this mail. I've tried to reproduce it multiple times, but haven't been able to. I'm hoping that the lockdep splat contains enough information by itself to be useful. This testing was done with v8 of my DAX PMD series, but I don't think my series modifies any of the locks in the splat so I think the problem should exist with v4.9-rc1 as well. Here's the tree I was testing with, mostly so you can easily match up line numbers from the lockdep splat: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/zwisler/linux.git/log/?h=dax_pmd_v8 Here's the lockdep splat, run through kasan_symbolize.py: run fstests generic/323 at 2016-10-19 18:03:15 ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency
