This entry is being used for tracking a regression from 3.2. Please don't
close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.

Actually this is no regression, so no need for tracking further.
The lockdep report is mostly a false-positive in this case.  The code needs to be better, simpler, but it doesn't mean that the current code is buggy.
