[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.18-rc5-mm1 #6
-------------------------------------------------------
wpa_supplicant/4658 is trying to acquire lock:
(crypto_alg_sem){----}, at: [__crypto_lookup_template+20/168]
__crypto_lookup_template+0x14/0xa8

but task is already holding lock:
((crypto_chain).rwsem){----}, at:
[blocking_notifier_call_chain+14/45]
blocking_notifier_call_chain+0xe/0x2d

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
