Just "me too" (but overlooked until recently).

The cause is a mutex_lock() call right after prepare_to_wait() with
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE in fanotify_read().

static ssize_t fanotify_read(struct file *file, char __user *buf,
                             size_t count, loff_t *pos)
{
        ....
        while (1) {
                prepare_to_wait(&group->notification_waitq, &wait, 
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
                mutex_lock(&group->notification_mutex);


I saw Peter already fixed a similar code in inotify_user.c by commit
e23738a7300a (but interestingly for a different reason, "Deal with
nested sleeps").  Supposedly a similar fix would be needed for
fanotify_user.c.

Eric, any fixes planned?


thanks,

Takashi
