From: Imre Deak <imre.deak@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d9349850e188b8b59e5322fda17ff389a1c0cd7d ] The sequence static DEFINE_WW_CLASS(test_ww_class); struct ww_acquire_ctx ww_ctx; struct ww_mutex ww_lock_a; struct ww_mutex ww_lock_b; struct ww_mutex ww_lock_c; struct mutex lock_c; ww_acquire_init(&ww_ctx, &test_ww_class); ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_a, &test_ww_class); ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_b, &test_ww_class); ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_c, &test_ww_class); mutex_init(&lock_c); ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_a, &ww_ctx); mutex_lock(&lock_c); ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_b, &ww_ctx); ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_c, &ww_ctx); mutex_unlock(&lock_c); (*) ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_c); ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_b); ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_a); ww_acquire_fini(&ww_ctx); (**) will trigger the following error in __lock_release() when calling mutex_release() at **: DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(depth <= 0) The problem is that the hlock merging happening at * updates the references for test_ww_class incorrectly to 3 whereas it should've updated it to 4 (representing all the instances for ww_ctx and ww_lock_[abc]). Fix this by updating the references during merging correctly taking into account that we can have non-zero references (both for the hlock that we merge into another hlock or for the hlock we are merging into).
