SubjectRe: latest -git: hibernate: possible circular locking dependency detected

The only suggestion I can make is that SysRq can be triggered remotely
with serial console (COM1/ttyS0), because I know that the serial line
is producing junk in the other direction (i.e. reading from /dev/ttyS0
on the kernel which has been booted with console=ttyS0 reads junk,
sometimes things that look like pieces of dmesg). Other than that, I
have no idea. The SysRq thing seems to only happen after I've entered
"echo disk > /sys/power/state" too.

(Also see my email at http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/21/409)

Yes, I have tried it. In fact, I believe the lockdep warning in the
boot-log comes with such a setting (ACPI was enabled; isn't platform
the default in that case?). At least it looked to be selected when
acpi is enabled:

> [platform] test testproc shutdown reboot
