lock order reversal

Wotcha!

So, I’ve been using FreeBSD 12-CURRENT at various svn releases for a while now, and I get quite a few “lock order reversal” dumps. The one I’ve got on my screen at the moment is for ufs / bufwait / ufs:

root_at_brax:/usr/src/stand # lock order reversal:
 1st 0xfffffd0003ec17e8 ufs (ufs) _at_ /usr/src/sys/kern/vfs_subr.c:2602
 2nd 0xffff0000410efa20 bufwait (bufwait) _at_ /usr/src/sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_vnops.c:282
 3rd 0xfffffd00b83ca7e8 ufs (ufs) _at_ /usr/src/sys/kern/vfs_subr.c:2602

Is there something I should be doing to help debug these?
