I do not know if this is new; I usually do not hibernate at all
and was testing another driver actually. I do not remember such
issues in 2.6.28 though. Dmesg follows; config attached.

No. It just makes stack a bit more deep :)

Anyway, looking at this trace in detail, it seems that in the
fbcon notifier the FB_EVENT_SET_CONSOLE_MAP handler doesn't use
fb_info at all.

So, just for this particular case, we could unlock fb_info->lock
before calling the routine that might acquire mm->mmap_sem, and
avoid the circular locking dependency.

Any chance to do a test with the following patch?
Step by step ... :)

In case it helps - suspend to RAM does not exhibit this issue.
Another attempt... ignore the previous patch 
Actually it was om top of previous patch
and try to apply this
one on top of "fbmem: copy_from/to_user() with mutex held (v3)".

Thanks a lot for the tests!
I hope you do not think I'm doing this on purpose? :)

fbmem: fix circular locking dependency pushing down fb_info->lock

Push down fb_info->lock into each framebuffer notifier callback to
avoid a circular locking dependency between fb_info->lock and
fb_notifier_list->rwsem.
