Which lock ordering are you considered invalid?

The stack trace included in the patch description show the 
(console_sem).lock --> &p->pi_lock --> &rq->__lock sequence because of 
the wake_up_process() call while holding the console_sem.lock.

The reverse &rq->__lock lock may happen when a printk() statement is 
called while holding the rq lock.

In this case, the printk() is triggered by a SCHED_WARN_ON() statement 
in update_rq_clock() which don't call printk_deferred and so won't have 
LOGLEVEL_SCHED set. I guess there is alternative way to work around this 
issue, but moving the process wakeup out from the semaphore spinlock 
will solve this problem in case there are other corner cases like that.

I will update the patch description to include this additional information.

Cheers,
Longman
