Johannes, you had another suggestion: changing iwlwifi's request_module() to request_module_nowait() in
iwl_req_fw_callback()

Is that still best thing to try in your opinion?

I guess so, I don't have any better ideas so far anyway ...

Johannes, Miri, what's the status wrt to this regression? From here
things look somewhat stalled -- but maybe there was progress and I just
missed it.

What do you want? It got bisected to an LED merge, but you ping _us_?
Way to go ...

Sorry, to me it sounded a bit like you had an idea for a fix and were
going to give it a try -- similar to how the maintainers for a r8169
driver and the igc driver provided fixes for bugs recent LED changes
exposed.

But sure, you are right, in the end some LED change seems to have cause
this, so the duty to fix it lies in that field. Therefore:

Lee, what's the status here to get this fixed before the final?

No idea.  Did you send a fix?

I sent what is probably just a work-around.  I also spent time bisecting and testing.
The problem appears to have come in with the LED related merge.  I think it is fair
to ask the LED folks to at least take a look at the lockdep debugging I posted.  It is
not fair to expect anyone that manages to find or track a bug to also fix it.

If someone has a different suggested fix than the hack I posted, I will be happy to
test.  On my system with lots of radios, it is 100% reproducible.
Maybe email me directly as I don't keep close watch on LKML.

Thanks,
Ben
