This warning seem to have been introduced with next-20100617.
The corresponding code is :
585 static inline void tty_lock(void) __acquires(kernel_lock)
586 {
587 #ifdef CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL
588 /* kernel_locked is 1 for !CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL */
589 WARN_ON(kernel_locked());
590 #endif
591 lock_kernel();
592 }
which was added by commit 01510c869f9..
tty: replace BKL with a new tty_lock
