This can be reproduced by bind/unbind the driver multiple times in AM3517 board. Analysis revealed that rtl8187_start() was invoked before probe finishes(ie. before the mutex is initialized). INFO: trying to register non-static key. the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation. turning off the locking correctness validator.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
