It was found that the use of up_read_non_owner() in NFS was causing the following warning when DEBUG_RWSEMS was configured.
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(sem->owner != ((struct task_struct *)(1UL << 0))) Looking into the rwsem.c file, it was discovered that the corresponding down_read_non_owner() function was not setting the owner field properly. This is fixed now, and the warning should be gone.
