[BUG?] possible recursive locking detected

[Rolf Eike Beer <eike-kernel@sf-tec.de>]

Hi,

I did some memory stress test (allocating and mlock()ing a huge number of 
pages) from userspace. At the very beginning of that I got that error long 
before the system got unresponsible and the oom killer dropped in.

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
kded/5304 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&inode->i_mutex){--..}, at: [<c11f476e>] mutex_lock+0x21/0x24

but task is already holding lock:
 (&inode->i_mutex){--..}, at: [<c11f476e>] mutex_lock+0x21/0x24

other info that might help us debug this:
