Re: [PATCH] lockdep: handle chains involving classes defined inmodules

[Huang Ying]

Hi, Rabin,

I think there is a simpler method to deal with this.

- Mark class as useless during zap_class()
- When output lock_chain, if some classes are useless, do not output the
class.

Best Regards,
Huang Ying
