^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ dirty?

This kernel is not using the patches we sent.

No, but they didn't make any difference. I tried with all 3 applied, then backed them out one by one. That was the state when I posted before.

Well, this is a completely different warning.


Here are the dumps with all 3 patches applied:

b43/1997 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:

Sorry. After all those kernel builds I got bleary-eyed and just looked for recursive locking without any regard for the details.
