Subject: 2.6.23-rc8-git2 possible recursive locking when running screen

Seen this a few times lately on a machine running rawhide when running
screen (and doing "something", it's not automatic. And box works just fine).
I think I saw this a few weeks back, so it's not a new regression.

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.23-0.211.rc8.git2.fc8 #1
---------------------------------------------
screen/32227 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&q->lock){++..}, at: [<c0426703>] __wake_up+0x15/0x42

but task is already holding lock:
 (&q->lock){++..}, at: [<c0426703>] __wake_up+0x15/0x42

other info that might help us debug this:
2 locks held by screen/32227:
 #0:  (&tty->atomic_read_lock){--..}, at: [<c0554ca2>] read_chan+0x1a1/0x5af
