Thanks Yuriy!
As a matter of fact I suspected there will be something more.
Lockdep always stops working after the first warning, and you
have some very interesting (entangled) configuration, so each
fix could uncover new warnings.
I need some time to figure out this one, so I'd try to use your
help yet... I hope it's only about lockdep warnings and there
are no real lockups.
Best regards,
