Hello,

got this with 2.6.20-rc2-mm1, reverting 
gregkh-driver-driver-core-fix-race-in-sysfs-between-sysfs_remove_file-and-read-write.patch 
made it disappear.

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.20-rc2-mm1 #51
---------------------------------------------
init/324 is trying to acquire lock:
(&sysfs_inode_imutex_key){--..}, at: [<c02b2c79>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f

but task is already holding lock:
(&sysfs_inode_imutex_key){--..}, at: [<c02b2c79>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f

other info that might help us debug this:
2 locks held by init/324:
#0:  (tty_mutex){--..}, at: [<c02b2c79>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f
#1:  (&sysfs_inode_imutex_key){--..}, at: [<c02b2c79>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f
