OMG, my mistake! I am very sorry. I will fix it.

BTW, lockdep_init_map() seems to decide whether using lockdep_map or
ignoring it, depending on CONFIG_LOCKDEP than CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC.

No, a zero size structure for lockdep_map is not provided yet.
There are two options I can do:

1. Add a zero size structure for lockdep_map and remove #ifdef
2. Replace CONFIG_LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS with CONFIG_LOCKDEP here.

Or something else?

Which one do you prefer?

This is the way workqueue adopted for that purpose. BTW, can I make
a lock_class_key distinguishable from another of a different gendisk,
using inline function?

Ok. I will make it work on the returned structre instead of passing it.

Ok. I will remove this #ifdef.

Thank you very much.
