Greetings,

Using openSUSE's "partitioner" gizmo to set up a reiserfs partition with
quotas and whatnot enabled rewarded me with a deadlock.

Is this just a -rt bug? Can't this deadlock also in mainline?

It didn't with a NOPREEMPT kernel the one time I tried it, which seemed
mighty odd when I stared at the rt deadlock.  I'll give it another go, I
likely just munged q/d NOPREEMPT test.

Nope, no screw-up.  Maybe it can deadlock, but it refused to do so.

Lockdep should tell you if it could ...

I'll give that a shot.  I would expect the thing to gripe.. but then I
expected the damn thing to deadlock properly with NOPREEMPT too, so.. :)
