Hi Stephen,
Digging into my email, one of the traces looked like this:
stack backtrace:
CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.16.0-rc1+ #135
Call trace:
[<ffffffc0000882cc>] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x12c
[<ffffffc000088408>] show_stack+0x10/0x1c
[<ffffffc0004ee5f0>] dump_stack+0x74/0xc4
[<ffffffc0000edfbc>] lockdep_rcu_suspicious+0xe8/0x124
[<ffffffc00010218c>] irq_find_mapping+0x16c/0x198
[<ffffffc00008130c>] gic_handle_irq+0x38/0xcc
Most drivers call irq_find_mapping outside of irq_enter()/irq_exit(), as
this is in handle_IRQ().
Thanks,
M.
