The input subsystem registers LEDs with default triggers while holding the input_lock and input_register_handler() takes the input_lock this means that a triggers activate method cannot directly call input_register_handler(). Move the calling of input_register_handler() to the already existing delayed-work to avoid this issue. Here is a lockdep from having the input-events trigger activated on a LED and then after that plugging in a USB keyboard: [ 2840.220145] usb 1-1.3: new low-speed USB device number 3 using xhci_hcd [ 2840.307172] usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0603, idProduct=0002, bcdDevice= 2.21 [ 2840.307375] usb 1-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [ 2840.307423] usb 1-1.3: Product: USB Composite Device [ 2840.307456] usb 1-1.3: Manufacturer: SINO WEALTH [ 2840.333985] input: SINO WEALTH USB Composite Device as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/0003:0603:0002.0007/input/input19 [ 2840.386545] ====================================================== [ 2840.386549] WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected [ 2840.386554] 6.10.0-rc1+ #97 Tainted: G C E [ 2840.386558] ------------------------------------------------------ [ 2840.386562] kworker/1:1/52 is trying to acquire lock: [ 2840.386566] ffff98fcf1629300 (&led_cdev->led_access){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: led_classdev_register_ext+0x1c6/0x380 [ 2840.386590] but task is already holding lock: [ 2840.386593] ffffffff88130cc8 (input_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: input_register_device.cold+0x47/0x150 [ 2840.386608] which lock already depends on the new lock.
