Do you mean the lockdep_map_acquire(&work->lockdep_map) used manuallly?

That was introduced by Johannes:

commit 4e6045f134784f4b158b3c0f7a282b04bd816887
"workqueue: debug flushing deadlocks with lockdep"

I am not sure but, for that purpose, IMHO, we can use a
lockdep_map_acquire_read() instead, in process_one_work(), can't we?
