Note that due to the heavy objections in the kvmtool thread I
have removed the tools/lib/lockdep library and tooling commits
from the locking tree - to be able to merge the other locking
commits upstream.

I'm pretty sad about this outcome as your code really brought
new development life into lockdep - if you still want to pursue
this approach then you might want to try it via the tools/kvm
tree, or via a separate project.

Thanks,

Ingo
