One code path is (mmap_sem taken before, video_device lock taken
afterwards) :
-> sys_mmap_pgoff()
grabs current->mm->mmap_sem at
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/mm/mmap.c#L1111
-> do_mmap_pgoff()
-> mmap_region()
-> v4l2_mmap()
grabs struct video_device->lock at
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/media/video/v4l2-dev.c#L396
The other code path is (video_device taken first, mmap_sem taken
afterwards) :
-> v4l2_ioctl()
grabs video_device->lock at
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/media/video/v4l2-dev.c#L327
-> video_ioctl2()
-> video_usercopy()
-> __video_do_ioctl()
-> videobuf_qbuf()
grabs current->mm->mmap_sem at
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/media/video/videobuf-core.c#L537
