Oh. Could you remove that line with the patch below - does it result
in a working system?

yes.


Now, this patch alone just removes a debugging check - but i'm not
sure the debugging check is correct - we take the pi_lock in a raw
way - which means it's not lockdep covered.

So how can lockdep_assert_held() be called on it?

Thanks,
