The lockdep warning is a tough, subtle issue.  But it's mostly harmless 
for this driver and it's not new for 2.6.34.

All the "BUG: key f560a6ec not in .data!" messages however I've never 
seen before and that needs to be investigated.  This one may get ugly.

I think I know what this one is.  It's yet another change from 2.6.34 
that I've been waiting to see appear in Mercurial but hasn't, having to 
do with management of sysfs nodes.  Until now I didn't realize it was 
this critical.  I will grab that patch and pull it myself.
