I know, I was so excited when I see nearly the same output.

Can you tell me why people see "similiar" problems in different areas?

[  181.397024] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2872 at kernel/sched/core.c:7303
__might_sleep+0xbd/0xd0()
[  181.397028] do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=1
set at [<ffffffff810b83bd>] prepare_to_wait_event+0x5d/0x110

With similiar buzzwords... namely...

mutex_lock_nested
prepare_to_wait(_event)
__might_sleep

I am asking myself... Where is the real root cause - in sched/core?
Fix one single place VS. fix the impact at several other places?
