Subject: INFO: possible circular locking dependency 2.6.32-rc6 drm

Hi


I've got this weird INFO trace.  I've not quite sure what happened at
this moment on my machine - as I've discovered this trace just later
in the log. But I might have been running Xorg :1 through valgrind
while using  Xorg :0 - and maybe Xorg :1 crashed at this moment ?

Machine is T61, 4GB, intel graphics,  Xorg 7.1, intel driver 2.9.1


 =======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.32-rc6-00167-ge75f911 #37
-------------------------------------------------------
memcheck-amd64-/3741 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&dev->mode_config.mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa0303c9f>]
drm_fb_release+0x2f/0xa0 [drm]

but task is already holding lock:
 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff81112568>] sys_munmap+0x48/0x80

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:
