which lock already depends on the new lock.

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &pipe->mutex --> &of->mutex --> &sbi->pipe_mutex

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&sbi->pipe_mutex);
                               lock(&of->mutex);
                               lock(&sbi->pipe_mutex);
  lock(&pipe->mutex);
