Is this new due to the ongoing printk rewrite? Also the above doesn't
actually describe the whole invesion, the one where console sem is taken
inside pi_lock is missing.
I am sorry that I might have stripped out too much for the lockdep splat
to make it understandable. Below is the full lockdep splat:

More concerning, that ordering is invalid to begin with, so the above
seems like a very poor justification for this patch.
Which lock ordering are you considered invalid?
The stack trace included in the patch description show the
(console_sem).lock --> &p->pi_lock --> &rq->__lock sequence because of
the wake_up_process() call while holding the console_sem.lock.
The reverse &rq->__lock lock may happen when a printk() statement is
called while holding the rq lock.
In this case, the printk() is triggered by a SCHED_WARN_ON() statement
in update_rq_clock() which don't call printk_deferred and so won't have
LOGLEVEL_SCHED set. I guess there is alternative way to work around this
issue, but moving the process wakeup out from the semaphore spinlock
will solve this problem in case there are other corner cases like that.
I will update the patch description to include this additional information.
Cheers,
Longman
