[PATCH RT 28/36] locking: ww_mutex: fix ww_mutex vs self-deadlock

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Mar 12 2015 - 15:26:25 EST


3.12.38-rt53-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mike Galbraith <umgwanakikbuti@xxxxxxxxx>

If the caller already holds the mutex, task_blocks_on_rt_mutex()
returns -EDEADLK, we proceed directly to rt_mutex_handle_deadlock()
where it's instant game over.

Let ww_mutexes return EDEADLK/EALREADY as they want to instead.
