Lockdep treats down_write_trylock like regular down_write
This causes constructions like down_write(&mm1->mmap_sem); if (down_write_trylock(&mm2->mmap_sem)) { ... up_write(&mm2->mmap_sem); } up_write(&mm1->mmap_sem); generate a lockdep warning about circular locking dependence. Call rwsem_acquire() with trylock set to 1.
