syz.0.18/4919 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff80008970de48 (gadget_subsys.su_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: uvcg_extension_allow_link+0x70/0x1f8 drivers/usb/gadget/function/uvc_configfs.c:1195

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:
  gadget_subsys.su_mutex --> &opts->dep_lock --> &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#23

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#23);
                               lock(&opts->dep_lock);
                               lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#23);
  lock(gadget_subsys.su_mutex);
