Subject: [PATCH v2 03/23] locking/lockdep: Adjust lock usage bit character checks
Date:   Mon,  6 May 2019 16:19:19 +0800
Message-Id: <20190506081939.74287-4-duyuyang@gmail.com>

Precedence: bulk

The lock usage bit characters are defined and determined with tricks.
Add some explanation to make it a bit clearer, then adjust the logic to
check the usage, which optimizes the code a bit.

No functional change.
