I saw a lockdep report with an instrumented 2.6.38-rc1 kernel [1].

Checking the code, it looks more likely a false-positive due to the
lock manipulation to satisfy lockdep, since CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is
defined.

Is this the case?

Thanks,
  Daniel

but task is already holding lock:

other info that might help us debug this:
