syz.0.17/4315 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffffff8cb63968 (nci_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: virtual_nci_close+0x13/0x40 drivers/nfc/virtual_ncidev.c:44

but task is already holding lock:

which lock already depends on the new lock.

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  nci_mutex --> &genl_data->genl_data_mutex --> &ndev->req_lock

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&ndev->req_lock);
                               lock(&genl_data->genl_data_mutex);
                               lock(&ndev->req_lock);
  lock(nci_mutex);
