Hello,
I've got the following deadlock report while running syzkaller fuzzer:
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 4.5.0-rc1+ #305 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- syz-executor/14254 is trying to acquire lock: (&runtime->oss.params_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8528a504>] snd_pcm_oss_change_params+0xd4/0x3540 sound/core/oss/pcm_oss.c:852
but task is already holding lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff816b267c>] vm_mmap_pgoff
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
