The following lockdep splat has been noticed during LTP testing
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
4.13.0-rc3-next-20170807 #12 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
a.out/4771 is trying to acquire lock:
(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff812b4668>] drain_all_stock.part.35+0x18/0x140
but task is already holding lock:
(&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff8106eb35>] __do_page_fault+0x175/0x530
which lock already depends on the new lock.

other info that might help us debug this:
Chain exists of:
cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem --> &type->i_mutex_dir_key#3 --> &mm->mmap_sem
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&mm->mmap_sem);
lock(&type->i_mutex_dir_key#3);
lock(&mm->mmap_sem);
lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);
*** DEADLOCK ***

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
