I confirm that after bumping LOCKDEP_CHAINS_BITS to 18 several days of
continuous writing on the BTRFS partition with different files with a
total size of 10Tb I didn't see this kernel bug message again.
Tetsuo, I saw your commit 5dc33592e95534dc8455ce3e9baaaf3dae0fff82 [1]
set for LOCKDEP_CHAINS_BITS default value 16.
Why not increase LOCKDEP_CHAINS_BITS to 18 by default?
Thanks.
