Hi Guenter,

lockdep reports the following circular locking dependency.


You are faster than me this time. I was just about to send you a pull request.
Sorry for being late. The watchdog-next branch in my repository on kernel.org
has all patches in my queue, in case you want to have a look.

I'll rebase my branch to yours and see if anything is missing, then send
you a pull request on top of it if needed.


All there. Looks like you picked it up right after I updated the branch
this morning.


This patch has been added to linux-watchdog-next.


This patch should probably be tagged for v4.6.

Turns out it has a Fixes: tag, so an additional tag should not be necessary.

Thanks,
Guenter
