Possible deadlock in videobuf_dma_init_user

[Petr Vandrovec]

Hello,
  my kernel is a bit unhappy with lock ordering between mm->mmap_sem 
and videobuf_queue->lock.
					Thanks,

=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
-------------------------------------------------------
mythbackend/8289 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&mm->mmap_sem){----}, at: [<ffffffff881d2ad5>] videobuf_dma_init_user+0xd5/0x190 [video_buf]

but task is already holding lock:
 (&q->lock#2){--..}, at: [<ffffffff81072905>] mutex_lock+0x25/0x30

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:
