other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &ovl_i_lock_key[depth]#2 --> sb_writers#4 --> &iint->mutex

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&iint->mutex);
                               lock(sb_writers#4);
                               lock(&iint->mutex);
  lock(&ovl_i_lock_key[depth]#2);
