Lockdep is disabled (for the whole system) by add_taint itself. The relevant commit that fixes TAINT_CRAP appears to be this one (circa 2.6.30): commit 574bbe782057fdf0490dc7dec906a2dc26363e20 Author: Frederic Weisbecker <fweis...@gmail.com> Date: Sat Apr 11 03:17:18 2009 +0200 lockdep: continue lock debugging despite some taints I didn't know about the dynamic debug problem. Is there more breakage that we haven't found yet? Remind me why we're trying to cripple out of tree module users?
