Commit 9c921c2 Author: Lan Tianyu <[email protected]> ACPI / Battery: Resolve the race condition in the sysfs_remove_battery() fixed BUG https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35642 , but as a side effect made lockdep unhappy with sysfs_remove_battery(): [14818.477168] [14818.477170] ======================================================= [14818.477200] [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] [14818.477221] 3.1.0-dbg-07865-g1280ea8-dirty torvalds#668 [14818.477236] ------------------------------------------------------- [14818.477257] s2ram/1599 is trying to acquire lock: [14818.477276] (s_active#8){++++.+}, at: [<ffffffff81169147>] sysfs_addrm_finish+0x31/0x5a [14818.477323] [14818.477325] but task is already holding lock: [14818.477350] (&battery->lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa0047278>] sysfs_remove_battery+0x10/0x4b [battery] [14818.477395] [14818.477397] which lock already depends on the new lock.

So fix by Lan Tianyu is still there, we just grab independent lock.
