Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/3] Synaptics - fix lockdep warnings

Hi Dmitry,

what do you think about the patches below? I have used a slightly 
different approach, as we also need to get rid of the spurious lockdep 
warning in case of recursive call of serio_interrupt(), which can't be 
handled well with lock subclass stored in struct psmouse. What do you 
think about this? It shuts up the lockdep, and seems much cleaner to me.

The first patch implements spin_lock_irqsave_nested(), which is needed by 
the second one:

And this second one actually fixes the locking with respect to lockdep
