If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Berg [ Upstream commit 87915adc3f0acdf03c776df42e308e5a155c19af ] In flush_work(), we need to create a lockdep dependency so that the following scenario is appropriately tagged as a problem: work_function() { mutex_lock(&mutex); ... } other_function() { mutex_lock(&mutex); flush_work(&work); // or cancel_work_sync(&work); } This is a problem since the work might be running and be blocked on trying to acquire the mutex. Similarly, in flush_workqueue(). These were removed after cross-release partially caught these problems, but now cross-release was reverted anyway. IMHO the removal was erroneous anyway though, since lockdep should be able to catch potential problems, not just actual ones, and cross-release would only have caught the problem when actually invoking wait_for_completion().
