i2c/mux, locking/core: Annotate the nested rt_mutex usage
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 7b94ea5 ]

If an i2c topology has instances of nested muxes, then a lockdep splat
is produced when when i2c_parent_lock_bus() is called.  Here is an
example:

  ============================================
  WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
  --------------------------------------------
  insmod/68159 is trying to acquire lock:
    (i2c_register_adapter#2){+.+.}, at: i2c_parent_lock_bus+0x32/0x50 [i2c_mux]

  but task is already holding lock:
    (i2c_register_adapter#2){+.+.}, at: i2c_parent_lock_bus+0x32/0x50 [i2c_mux]

  other info that might help us debug this:
    Possible unsafe locking scenario:

          CPU0
          ----
     lock(i2c_register_adapter#2);
     lock(i2c_register_adapter#2);

    *** DEADLOCK ***

    May be due to missing lock nesting notation

  1 lock held by insmod/68159:
    #0:  (i2c_register_adapter#2){+.+.}, at: i2c_parent_lock_bus+0x32/0x50 [i2c_mux]
