Subject: fix up lockdep trace in fs/exec.c
Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2006 21:52:59 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060811015259.GD16454@redhat.com> (raw)

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
---------------------------------------------
init/1 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&sighand->siglock){....}, at: [<c047a78a>] flush_old_exec+0x3ae/0x859

but task is already holding lock:
 (&sighand->siglock){....}, at: [<c047a77a>] flush_old_exec+0x39e/0x859

other info that might help us debug this:
2 locks held by init/1:
 #0:  (tasklist_lock){..--}, at: [<c047a76a>] flush_old_exec+0x38e/0x859
 #1:  (&sighand->siglock){....}, at: [<c047a77a>] flush_old_exec+0x39e/0x859
