Then the driver or lib has to be fixed / improved first or the driver core has
to be enabled to deal with a case where PROBE_FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS is requested
from an async path, etc.

In any case, applying the patch and breaking things (knowingly?) doesn't seem
like the correct approach.

You mean quickly booting into a "harmless" potential deadlock condition the
warning splat tries to make people aware of? :)

(Or am I missing a subtle detail and we can never actually end up in a deadlock
for some reason?)
