If an i2c topology has instances of nested muxes, then a lockdep splat
is produced when when i2c_parent_lock_bus() is called. Here is an
example:
============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
--------------------------------------------
insmod/68159 is trying to acquire lock:
(i2c_register_adapter#2){+.+.}, at: i2c_parent_lock_bus+0x32/0x50 [i2c_mux]
but task is already holding lock:
(i2c_register_adapter#2){+.+.}, at: i2c_parent_lock_bus+0x32/0x50 [i2c_mux]
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(i2c_register_adapter#2);
lock(i2c_register_adapter#2);
*** DEADLOCK ***
May be due to missing lock nesting notation
1 lock held by insmod/68159:
