Sorry for my unclearly previously description. 1. no such lockdep warning in latest mainline kernel git tree. 2. there is a 100% producible warning based on your latest mmotm tree 3. after applying the commit efd112 based on your mmotm tree, the warning disappearred I will do some further digging to answer your question if no other experts' help -- Cheers, Jia
