It's actually ieee1394 using net infrastructure for purposes which ar
unrelated to networking.

...I believe it is unrelated to the 1394 updates new to -mm6.

Well, firewire is special, but that should already be addressed by this
patch: "lockdep: annotate ieee1394 skb-queue-head locking"
http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=d378834840907326ac9d448056d957d13cc3718f
Why is there still a lockdep warning?
(Ieee1394 core's usage of the skb_* API is entirely unrelated to
networking; even if eth1394 was used.)
