other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  sb_writers#5 --> (wq_completion)loop4 --> (work_completion)(&worker->work)

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock((work_completion)(&worker->work));
                               lock((wq_completion)loop4);
                               lock((work_completion)(&worker->work));
  rlock(sb_writers#5);
