Jiri, we had a similar bug in the RH bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=958935

Are these two reports potentially fixed by your patch "HID: protect
hid_debug_list" (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2453931/)
If so, maybe we should send it to stable as well...
I actually believe this bug is *introduced* by that patch :) All the 
reports were with the kernel containing it, right?

Does the patch below fix it, please?
[ ... snip ... ]
Add your patch.Found the following message:
[  150.908051] ======================================================
[  150.908053] [ INFO: HARDIRQ-safe -> HARDIRQ-unsafe lock order detected ]
[  150.908056] 3.9.0+ #102 Not tainted
Right, oh well, I missed that scenario.

The patch below should cover that, please let me know. Thanks a lot for 
your testing.
