A stupid mismerge in __might_sleep meant that with the right config
options dmesg would have been swamped with false warnings. This also
was making BFS consume a lot of CPU under certain conditions in
combination with preempt RCU.

Thanks to Jayson R King for picking it up!

There are no other changes in this version compared to 312

I highly recommend BFS users upgrade.
