Patch 1 has no change. v3->v4: - Document the new read state and move the conditional compilation code to lockdep.h. v2->v3: - Add a new read mode (3) for rwlock (used in lock_acquire_shared_cond_recursive()) to avoid conflict with other use cases of lock_acquire_shared_recursive(). v1->v2: - Use less conditional & make it easier to read With the merging of qrwlock into 3.16, it was found that the btrfs filesystem hanged readily. A fix was devised and merged into rc2 and the use of recursive read_lock call was part of the problem. This patch series addes code to the lockdep subsystem to catch this kind of recursive read_lock calls in kernel code. It also updates the locking selftest to handle recursive read_lock correctly so that it won't complain about test failures.
