I think this should not be marked as a regression.  See the older reports of
very similar issues (in my LKML mail from September 3, logged in bugzilla in
comment #1)
        http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/15/76       (2.6.33-rc, xfs involved)
        http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/18/108      (2.6.32.y, ntfs involved)
and hch's analysis in the first of these two threads
        http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/19/267      (several filesystems and
                                                 other code paths)
So, unless my trace was a code path that only newly acquired that oldproblem
of other code paths, this is an older issue.  Alas this is not obvious to me
at least from the log that I got.

I did not have lockdep enabled on the machine which delivered the log during
the last few months or so; I just remembered to re-enable it at the occasion
of switching to 2.6.36-rc.
