Yes, I just sent it to Linus a few minutes ago.

I think Greg already has about the same patch queued.

[PATCH] kernfs: skip lockdep annotation always if ignore_lockdep is set

2014-02-07 Thread Imre Deak 
We skip lockdep annotations for sysfs attributes with ignore_lockdep
set. An exception is kernfs_deactivate where we annotate even in this
case. Since the lockdep map key needed for the annotation is not
initialized whenever ignore_lockdep is set, we'll get a warning for
the uninitialized key.

Note that this happens since,

commit 517e64f57883bd63c5a4ab8b3d0d3ed68c55d0cf
Author: Tejun Heo 
Date:   Thu Nov 28 14:54:29 2013 -0500

Before this change we had a valid key even in case of ignore_lockdep, so
the annotation in kernfs_deactivate worked, or at least didn't produce
the above warning. Fix this by skipping the annotation whenever
ignore_lockdep is set.

The actual attribute triggering the bug was 'delete_device' in
drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c, for the backtrace see the reference below.
