lockdep splat in CPU hotplug

Hi,

I am seeing the lockdep report below when resuming from suspend-to-disk
with current Linus' tree (c2661b80609).

The reason for CCing Ingo and Peter is that I can't make any sense of one
of the stacktraces lockdep is providing.

Please have a look at the very first stacktrace in the dump, where lockdep
is trying to explain where cpu_hotplug.lock#2 has been acquired. It seems
to imply that cpuidle_pause() is taking cpu_hotplug.lock, but that's not
the case at all.

What am I missing?

Thanks.
