This is actually a mainline issue relating to legacy consoles. In
mainline you see it as a warning when CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING is
enabled.

If you enable CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT you will not have the problem.

I will look at how the issue can be gracefully ignored in
!CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT.

Thanks for reporting.
