From 31c7b6c5657bcc897ddc79d7f9bb1942eb4c854a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darren Hart <dvhltc(a)us.ibm.com> Date: Fri, 9 Jul 2010 17:46:05 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 2/4] rtmutex: add WARN_ON if a task attempts to block on two locks rtmutex proxy locking complicates the logic a bit and opens up the possibility for a task to wake and attempt to take another sleeping lock without knowing it has been enqueued on another lock already. Add a WARN_ON to catch this scenario early. V2: use a WARN_ON instead of a BUG_ON per Steven's request.
