Hm ... assuming I didn't get lost in the maze I think might_sleep (well
___might_sleep) doesn't do any lockdep checking at all. And we want
might_sleep, since that catches a lot more than lockdep.

Maybe you mixed it up with the hard/softirq context stuff that lockdep
tracks and complains about if you get it wrong?
