[PATCH v3 16/24] locking/lockdep: Retain the class key and name while freeing a lock class

From: Bart Van Assche
Date: Thu Dec 06 2018 - 20:14:34 EST


The next patch in this series uses the class name in code that
detects calls to lock_acquire() while a class key is being freed. Hence
retain the class name for lock classes that are being freed.
