A lockdep reports a possible deadlock in the find_vmap_area_exceed_addr_lock()
function:
============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.9.0-rc1-00060-ged3ccc57b108-dirty #6140 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
drgn/455 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff0000c00131d0 (&vn->busy.lock/1){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: find_vmap_area_exceed_addr_lock+0x64/0x124
but task is already holding lock:
ffff0000c0011878 (&vn->busy.lock/1){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: find_vmap_area_exceed_addr_lock+0x64/0x124
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(&vn->busy.lock/1);
lock(&vn->busy.lock/1);
*** DEADLOCK ***
indeed it can happen if the find_vmap_area_exceed_addr_lock() gets called
concurrently because it tries to acquire two nodes locks. It was done to
prevent removing a lowest VA found on a previous step.
To address this a lowest VA is found first without holding a node lock
where it resides. As a last step we check if a VA still there because it
can go away, if removed, proceed with next lowest.

README
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 reStructuredText 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.
