Hello,

======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
4.13.0-rc6-next-20170822-dbg-00020-g39758ed8aae0-dirty #1746 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
fsck.ext4/148 is trying to acquire lock:
(&bdev->bd_mutex){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8116e73e>] __blkdev_put+0x33/0x190

but now in release context of a crosslock acquired at the following:
((complete)&wait#2){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812159e0>] blk_execute_rq+0xbb/0xda

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
