Lockdep tends to be right ... So we definitely want that, but maybe a
different flavour, or there's something wrong with the workqueue setup.

This is the major reason why inventing any wheels locally in the kernel
isn't a good idea - aside from the duplicated code because likely there is
a solution for whatever you need. There's all the validation tools,
careful thought about semantics (especially around races) and all that
stuff that you're always missing on your hand-rolled thing. Aside from
anything hand-rolled is much harder to read, since intent isn't clear.
