rtmutex based ww_mutexes can legitimately create a cycle in the lock graph
which can be observed by a blocker which didn't cause the problem:
P1: A, ww_A, ww_B
P2: ww_B, ww_A
P3: A
P3 might therefore be trapped in the ww_mutex induced cycle and run into
the lock depth limitation of rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain() which returns
-EDEADLK to the caller.
Disable the deadlock detection walk when the chain walk observes a
ww_mutex to prevent this looping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
