As expected...
So... Not sure what can I say ;) can you verify that this patch doesn't solve
the issues with CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING pointed out by Sebastian? Using
stress-ng or anything else.
This is not that bad, unless I am totally confused the current code (without
your patch) has the same problem (otherwise we wouldn't need this fix).
But perhaps you can make 2/2 which adds the DEFINE_WAIT_OVERRIDE_MAP() hack
as Peter suggested?
Oleg.
