The following two commits implemented mmap support in the regular file
path and merged bin file support into the regular path.

 73d97146 ("sysfs: copy bin mmap support from fs/sysfs/bin.c to fs/sysfs/file.c")
 3124eb16

 ("sysfs: merge regular and bin file handling")

After the merge, the following commands trigger a spurious lockdep
warning.  "test-mmap-read" simply mmaps the file and dumps the
content.

  $ cat /sys/block/sda/trace/act_mask
  $ test-mmap-read /sys/devices/pci0000\:00/0000\:00\:03.0/resource0 4096

  [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]

  -------------------------------------------------------
  test-mmap-read/567 is trying to acquire lock:
   (&of->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8120a8df>] sysfs_bin_mmap+0x4f/0x120

  but task is already holding lock:
   (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff8114b399>] vm_mmap_pgoff+0x49/0xa0

  which lock already depends on the new lock.

  the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

  -> #3 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}:
  ...
  -> #2 (sr_mutex){+.+.+.}:
  ...
  -> #1 (&bdev->bd_mutex){+.+.+.}:
  ...
  -> #0 (&of->mutex){+.+.+.}:
  ...

  other info that might help us debug this:

  Chain exists of:
   &of->mutex --> sr_mutex --> &mm->mmap_sem

   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

	 CPU0                    CPU1
	 ----                    ----
    lock(&mm->mmap_sem);
				 lock(sr_mutex);
				 lock(&mm->mmap_sem);
    lock(&of->mutex);

This happens because one file nests sr_mutex, which nests mm->mmap_sem
under it, under of->mutex while mmap implementation naturally nests
of->mutex under mm->mmap_sem.  The warning is false positive as
of->mutex is per open-file and the two paths belong to two different
files.  This warning didn't trigger before regular and bin file
supports were merged because only bin file supported mmap and the
other side of locking happened only on regular files which used
equivalent but separate locking.

It'd be best if we give separate locking classes per file but we can't
easily do that.  Let's differentiate on ->mmap() for now.  Later we'll
add explicit file operations struct and can add per-ops lockdep key
there.
