lockdep warning in btrfs in 4.8-rc3

[Christian Borntraeger]

Chris,

with 4.8-rc3 I get the following on an s390 box:


[ 1094.009172] =============================================
[ 1094.009174] [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]

[ 1094.009179] ---------------------------------------------
[ 1094.009180] vim/12891 is trying to acquire lock:

               but task is already holding lock:

[ 1094.009276] 
               other info that might help us debug this:
[ 1094.009278]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

[ 1094.009288]  May be due to missing lock nesting notation
