Okay... those are fixed. Here's the next:


=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
3.15.0-rc6-fsdevel+ #367 Tainted: G W
---------------------------------------------
open-file/3594 is trying to acquire lock:
(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9/2){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81137121>] generic_file_splice_write+0x88/0x154

but task is already holding lock:
(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9/2){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8111cf8d>] lock_rename+0xd3/0xdc

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0
----
lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9/2);
lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9/2);

*** DEADLOCK ***

May be due to missing lock nesting notation

4 locks held by open-file/3594:
#0: (sb_writers#8){.+.+.+}, at: [<ffffffff8112bf5b>] mnt_want_write+0x1c/0x40
