I'm afraid you get this wrong ;-) reader of rwsem is non-recursive if I
understand correctly, so case like:

	Task 0			Task 1

	down_read(A);
				mutex_lock(B);

				down_read(A);
	mutex_lock(B);

can be a deadlock, if we consider a third independent task:

	Task 0			Task 1			Task 2

	down_read(A);
				mutex_lock(B);
							down_write(A);
				down_read(A);
	mutex_lock(B);

in this case, Task 1 can not get it's lock for A, therefore, deadlock.
