That was a good idea to check what's going on on 3117 line. Well, your analysis
was correct, it's just we have different match_held_lock() lines, and I guess we
may have different lines within match_held_lock()-callers in that case.

Just for note, I'm using the latest
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
$ git pull
Already up-to-date.
