    Fix this deadlock - we are already holding the mutex:
    
    =======================================================
    [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.38-rc4-test+ #1
    -------------------------------------------------------
    bash/1850 is trying to acquire lock:
     (text_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8100a9c1>] return_to_handler+0x0/0x2f
    
    but task is already holding lock:
     (smp_alt){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff8100a9c1>] return_to_handler+0x0/0x2f
    
    which lock already depends on the new lock.
    
    the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
