Yes. But, even better, please turn on lockdep when you are testing. It will find these for you. If you're on x86, we have a set of handy-dandy debug options that you can add to an existing config with: make x86_debug.config That said, I'm as concerned as everyone else that this is all "new" code and doesn't lean on existing tracing or things like PAGE_OWNER enough.
