Much simpler to write: struct address_space *mapping = NULL; if (vma->vm_file) mapping = vma->vm_file->f_mapping; > if (mapping) > - lockdep_assert(lockdep_is_held(&vma->vm_file->f_mapping->i_mmap_rwsem) || > + lockdep_assert(lockdep_is_held(&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem) || > lockdep_is_held(&vma->vm_mm->mmap_lock)); > else > lockdep_assert(lockdep_is_held(&vma->vm_mm->mmap_lock)); This one should have been lockdep_assert_held(&vma->vm_mm->mmap_lock). I'm not sure that the previous one is correct. The lockdep_assert_held() macro is pretty careful about checking LOCK_STATE_NOT_HELD to avoid the LOCK_STATE_UNKNOWN possibility. But I'll leave that for Peter to fix.
