This corresponds to:

	BUG_ON(rt_mutex_owner(lock) == current);

in rt_spin_lock_slowlock.  If you had CONFIG_BUG_VERBOSE this would have
been more obvious.

I assume the problem is that the function omap_hsmmc_request tries to be
clever in a non-rt compatible way:
	
	/*
	 * Prevent races with the interrupt handler because of unexpected
	 * interrupts, but not if we are already in interrupt context i.e.
	 * retries.
	 */
	if (!in_interrupt()) {
		spin_lock_irqsave(&host->irq_lock, host->flags);

But looking at the backtrace in this context in_interrupt() would be
true in !PREEMPT_RT.

You might want to report that to the author(s) of
drivers/mmc/host/omap_hsmmc.c.

Best regards
Uwe
