Subject: recursive locking: epoll.

We just had a Fedora user report this lockdep trace.

  =============================================
  [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
  3.0-0.rc7.git0.1.fc16.i686 #1
  ---------------------------------------------
  systemd-logind/651 is trying to acquire lock:
   (&ep->mtx){+.+.+.}, at: [<c05285f1>] ep_scan_ready_list+0x32/0x154
 
  but task is already holding lock:
   (&ep->mtx){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0528a90>] sys_epoll_ctl+0x103/0x481
 
  other info that might help us debug this:
   Possible unsafe locking scenario:
 
         CPU0
         ----
    lock(&ep->mtx);
    lock(&ep->mtx);
 
   *** DEADLOCK ***
 
   May be due to missing lock nesting notation
 
  2 locks held by systemd-logind/651:
   #0:  (epmutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0528a4b>] sys_epoll_ctl+0xbe/0x481
   #1:  (&ep->mtx){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0528a90>] sys_epoll_ctl+0x103/0x481
