[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]

---------------------------------------------
kworker/0:0/4 is trying to acquire lock:
(_xmit_ETHER#2){+.-...}, at: [<c040e95c>] sch_direct_xmit+0xa8/0x1fc
but task is already holding lock:
(_xmit_ETHER#2){+.-...}, at: [<c03f4208>] __dev_queue_xmit+0x4d4/0x56c
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(_xmit_ETHER#2);
lock(_xmit_ETHER#2);
To avoid this, walk the tq queues of the dsa slaves and set a lockdep
class.
