# HEAD: b483cf3bc249d7af706390efa63d6671e80d1c09 locking/lockdep: Disable cross-release features for now

Two lockdep fixes for bugs introduced by the cross-release dependency tracking
feature - plus a commit that disables it because performance regressed in an
absymal fashion on some systems.

Thanks,

Ingo
