A deadlock caused by wait_for_completion() and complete() can be

+ help
+ The lockdep "cross-release" feature needs to record stack traces
+ (of calling functions) for all acquisitions, for eventual later
+ use during analysis. By default only a single caller is recorded,
+ because the unwind operation can be very expensive with deeper
+ stack chains.
+
+ However a boot parameter, crossrelease_fullstack, was
+ introduced since sometimes deeper traces are required for full
+ analysis. This option turns on the boot parameter.
