I think this precise one is solved. The problem is that there are other
vmalloc in the same path that also need to be fixed.

I have a pending patch for that but as there are other reiserfs lockdep
reports to be solved, I'm trying to pack all fixes in a same
set so that they can be tested using a simple merge.

For now, I guess this ticket shouldn't be closed until reporters
can test the whole.

Thanks!
