Hi
I'm getting this INFO message from losetup I'm using in my scripts:
if more info is needed from my side just ask.
(haven't seen this with 2.6.24..., using T61, 64bit kernel)
Bye

[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.25-rc1 #29
-------------------------------------------------------
losetup/26595 is trying to acquire lock:
(&bdev->bd_mutex){--..}, at: [<ffffffff810e6258>] __blkdev_put+0x38/0x1e0
but task is already holding lock:
(&lo->lo_ctl_mutex){--..}, at: [<ffffffff883d097e>] lo_ioctl+0x4e/0xaf0 [loop]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
