Subject: [PATCH] tty: tty_mutex: fix lockdep warning in tty_lock_pair
Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 13:58:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1337234296-23313-1-git-send-email-ming.lei@canonical.com> (raw)
Commit d29f3ef39be4eec0362b985305fc526d9be318cf(tty_lock:
Localise the lock) introduces tty_lock_pair, in which
may cause lockdep warning because two locks with same lock
class are to be acquired one after another.
This patch uses mutex_lock_nest_lock annotation to avoid
the warning.
