Subject: Next March 24: Inconsistent lock state trace

Hi Stephen,

I had today's next tree compiled and booted on a powerpc box.
While compiling a kernel on the same box saw the following trace
on console.

=================================
[ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]

==============================

Not too sure what to infer from the above trace :-(
Haven't seen this trace with previous next tree's.

Have attached .config here, just in case it helps.

Thanks
