Yeah, sorry, forgot to mention that pre-49dfe2a67797 kernels wouldn't 
produce this, as there would not be aware of the fact that 
cpus_read_lock() is actually semantically a lock.

I have been briefly looking into this as well -- it'll basically have to 
be moved out of the trans_pcie->mutex context, but

(a) I'm not sure whether that's actually safe
(b) iwl_pcie_rx_reuse_rbd() (which is where corresponding work is being 
    queued) is not a proper context either (it's atomic context)

Thanks,
