Yes, and I've got mixed results. It reproduced, and all I got was:

[  717.645572] ===============================
[  717.645572] [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
[  717.645572] 3.19.0-rc5-next-20150121-sasha-00064-g3c37e35-dirty #1809 
Tainted: G        W
[  717.645572] -------------------------------
[  717.645572] kernel/rcu/tree_plugin.h:337 rcu_read_unlock() from irq or 
softirq with blocking in critical section!!!
[  717.645572] !
[  717.645572]
[  717.645572] other info that might help us debug this:
[  717.645572]
[  717.645572]
[  717.645572] rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
[  717.645572] 3 locks held by trinity-c29/16497:
[  717.645572]  #0:  (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key){+.+.+.}, at: 
[<ffffffff81bec373>] lookup_slow+0xd3/0x420
[  717.645572]  #1:
[hang]

So the rest of the locks/stack trace didn't get printed, nor the pr_alert() 
which
should follow that.

I've removed the lockdep call and will re-run it.


Thanks,
Sasha
