Sorry Andrew, I am not sure which maintainer to contact about this.  I
CCed gregkh for sysfs and Yi for ipw2200.  Hopefully this is helpful.
BTW, I also found that none of my network drivers were recognized by
hal (lshal did not show their "net" entries) unless I set
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y.  I am running Ubuntu development (Feisty
Fawn), so it seems like I ought to be running pretty current hal
utilities:   hal-device-manager       0.5.8.1-4ubuntu1.  After
reenabling CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED, I am able to use my IPW2200
driver, in spite of this recursive locking message, so this INFO
message may not indicate a problem.

[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.20-rc2-mm1 #21
---------------------------------------------
modprobe/1779 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&sysfs_inode_imutex_key){--..}, at: [<c02db236>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f

but task is already holding lock:
 (&sysfs_inode_imutex_key){--..}, at: [<c02db236>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f

other info that might help us debug this:
3 locks held by modprobe/1779:
 #0:  (rtnl_mutex){--..}, at: [<c02db236>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x1f
