Subject: cassini: possible recursive locking detected

While installing Linux on Sun Fire V480, any traffic on builtin cassini 
NIC caused a hang. Worked this around by using Broadcom NIC and tried a 
kernel with most debugging options. This resulted in the following 
warning. Maybe this is the deadlonck I was seeing?
