is this still present with 2.6.34-rc1 kernel?

We are using 2.6.32-XX kernel so far.

please check with 2.6.34-rc1 to ensure it is still present. And do you
have instructions on how to re-produce it?

One strange here is that I see this when
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled and CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP is not enabled.

When I enabled both CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING I
see no warnings.

We use stress tests so I am not sure that it is easy to reproduce.

Andrei
