looks like a real bug to me:

nodemgr_node_probe() takes down_read(&class->subsys.rwsem) and then
calls nodemgr_probe_ne() which calls nodemgr_update_pdrv() which does
down_read(&class->subsys.rwsem).

Such recursive taking of rwsems is not allowed (rwsems are fair, if a
write comes in in between then there is a deadlock).
