Well, this is almost cosmetics, and I am not maintaner, but...

I think this should be

if (!(current->flags & PF_NOFREEZE))
debug_check_no_locks_held(...);

without "return". This way we avoid the unnecessary PF_NOFREEZE check
if !CONFIG_LOCKDEP. And perhaps more importantly, this way it is clear
that we check PF_NOFREEZE for debugging only and do not change the code
behaviour.

But I leave this to Rafael/Tejun.

And again, unless I missed something, this makes 1/5 unnecessary.
