Recently we met a lockdep warning from sysfs during s2ram.
As reported by several people, it is something like:
[ 6967.926563] ACPI: Preparing to enter system sleep state S3
[ 6967.956156] Disabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 6967.970401]
[ 6967.970408] =============================================
[ 6967.970419] [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
[ 6967.970431] 2.6.33-rc2-git6 #27
[ 6967.970439] ---------------------------------------------
[ 6967.970450] pm-suspend/22147 is trying to acquire lock:
[ 6967.970460] (s_active){++++.+}, at: [<c10d2941>]
sysfs_hash_and_remove+0x3d/0x4f
[ 6967.970493]
[ 6967.970497] but task is already holding lock:
[ 6967.970506] (s_active){++++.+}, at: [<c10d4110>]
sysfs_get_active_two+0x16/0x36
[...]
Eric already provides a patch for this[1], but it still can't fix the
problem. Based on his work and Peter's suggestion, I write this patch,
hopefully we can fix the warning completely.
This patch put sysfs s_active into two classes, one is for PM, the other
is for the rest, so lockdep will distinguish them.
Still, using a workqueue to do the cleaning work is another choice,
as pointed by Eric. But not sure if it's better than this approach,
this depends on if we want to eliminate all the similar cases hold
the same class of locks, or just eliminate this one case. Please
comment.
I tested this patch, it fixes the problem.

Similar to the previous PM case, in iosched, we hold an s_active
lock to store "scheduler", meanwhile we want to remove "iosched/*"
files.
This patch depends on the previous one. I tested it on my machine,
it fixes the problem.

After applying the 2 patches to 2.6.33-rc7, I get the following:

the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
turning off the locking correctness validator.

This dump does not occur with standard 2.6.33-rc7. As the above turns off the
locking correctness validator, I cannot really test to see what happens when
suspending.

Ouch! I forgot to add the annotations to sysfs dirs...
Thanks much for the report, I will send an updated version soon!
