Does the patch below fix the warning for you? -- >From 28aae7104425433d39e6142adcd5b88dc5b0ad5f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2017 18:31:02 +0200 Subject: block: use DECLARE_COMPLETION_ONSTACK in submit_bio_wait This way we get our lockdep annotations right in case multiple layers in the stack use submit_bio_wait. It also happens to simplify the code by getting rid of the submit_bio_ret structure.
