syz.8.3113/19035 is trying to acquire lock:

ffff8880785382c0 (&mddev->reconfig_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: array_state_store+0x2e4/0x9c0 drivers/md/md.c:4503

but task is already holding lock:

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &mddev->reconfig_mutex --> (work_completion)(&mddev->del_work) --> kn->active#919

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(kn->active#919);
                               lock((work_completion)(&mddev->del_work));
                               lock(kn->active#919);
  lock(&mddev->reconfig_mutex);
