Subject: [2.6.21.4]: possible recursive locking detected


I found below call trace today morning in dmesg output on one of my test
computer:

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.21.4-2.1 #1
---------------------------------------------
usb-storage/1806 is trying to acquire lock:
  (&(us->dev_mutex)){--..}, at: [<c05f28a2>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f

but task is already holding lock:
  (&(us->dev_mutex)){--..}, at: [<c05f28a2>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f

other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by usb-storage/1806:
  #0:  (&(us->dev_mutex)){--..}, at: [<c05f28a2>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f
