I'll read this later...

I didn't check what this lock is protecting, but have you checked all
PM runtime callbacks if they are not taking the lock. When you call PM
runtime functions with 'sync' it may include a lot of work, some of
which may sleep (not a problem for mutex) and may take arbitrary locks
(might be a deadlock in case of trying the same lock).
