Subject: [PATCH v2 04/17] locking/lockdep: Update direct dependency's read-write type if it exists
Date:   Thu, 16 May 2019 16:00:02 +0800

When adding a dependency, if the dependency exists - be it direct or
indirect - the dependency's read-write type may be updated.

We can keep all different-typed dependencies, but for simplicity we just
"upgrade" lock types if possible, making them more exlusive (in the order:
recursive read -> read -> write.

For indirect dependency, we do the redundancy check only when it has no
read locks (i.e., write-lock ended dependency); this makes the redundancy
check less complicated, which matters only when CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SMALL.
