Subject: [PATCH] kernfs: skip lockdep annotation always if ignore_lockdep is set
Date: Fri,  7 Feb 2014 21:47:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1391802421-7829-1-git-send-email-imre.deak@intel.com> (raw)

We skip lockdep annotations for sysfs attributes with ignore_lockdep
set. An exception is kernfs_deactivate where we annotate even in this
case. Since the lockdep map key needed for the annotation is not
initialized whenever ignore_lockdep is set, we'll get a warning for
the uninitialized key.

Note that this happens since,

commit 517e64f57883bd63c5a4ab8b3d0d3ed68c55d0cf

Before this change we had a valid key even in case of ignore_lockdep, so
the annotation in kernfs_deactivate worked, or at least didn't produce
the above warning. Fix this by skipping the annotation whenever
ignore_lockdep is set.

The actual attribute triggering the bug was 'delete_device' in
drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c, for the backtrace see the reference below.
