I can confirm that this fixes the problem I saw earlier. However, I now
have a new one:
1. Define virtunal ctcs 7000 and 7001: This
creates /sys/bus/ccw/devices/{0.0.7000,0.0.7001}.
2. Do echo 0.0.7000,0.0.7001 > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/ctc/group.
This creates /sys/bus/ccwgroup/devices/0.0.7000, which has the two ccw
devices from above as slave devices.
3. Detach virtual ctcs 7000 and 7001. This causes the subchannel
beneath 0.0.7000 resp. 0.0.7001 to be unregistered (from a workqueue)
which will in turn trigger an unregistration of ccw device 0.0.7000,
ccw group device 0.0.7000 and ccw device 0.0.7001. Now lockdep is
unhappy:
crw_info : CRW reports slct=0, oflw=0, chn=0, rsc=3, anc=1, erc=4, rsid=F
crw_info : CRW reports slct=0, oflw=0, chn=0, rsc=3, anc=1, erc=4, rsid=10
DEV: Unregistering device. ID = '0.0.000f'
bus css: remove device 0.0.000f
DEV: Unregistering device. ID = '0.0.7000'
bus ccw: remove device 0.0.7000
DEV: Unregistering device. ID = '0.0.7000'
bus ccwgroup: remove device 0.0.7000

(We use sch->reg_mutex to protect against concurrent

I'll see whether I can figure out this one.
