[PATCH RT 05/15] list_bl: fixup bogus lockdep warning

[Steven Rostedt]

3.18.36-rt38-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Josh Cartwright <joshc@xxxxxx>

At first glance, the use of 'static inline' seems appropriate for
INIT_HLIST_BL_HEAD().

However, when a 'static inline' function invocation is inlined by gcc,
all callers share any static local data declared within that inline
function.

This presents a problem for how lockdep classes are setup.  raw_spinlocks, for
example, when CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK,

	# define raw_spin_lock_init(lock)				\
	do {								\
		static struct lock_class_key __key;			\
									\
		__raw_spin_lock_init((lock), #lock, &__key);		\
	} while (0)

When this macro is expanded into a 'static inline' caller, like
INIT_HLIST_BL_HEAD():

	static inline INIT_HLIST_BL_HEAD(struct hlist_bl_head *h)
	{
		h->first = NULL;
		raw_spin_lock_init(&h->lock);
	}

...the static local lock_class_key object is made a function static.

For compilation units which initialize invoke INIT_HLIST_BL_HEAD() more
than once, then, all of the invocations share this same static local
object.

This can lead to some very confusing lockdep splats (example below).
Solve this problem by forcing the INIT_HLIST_BL_HEAD() to be a macro,
which prevents the lockdep class object sharing.

 [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
 4.4.4-rt11 #4 Not tainted
 ---------------------------------------------
 kswapd0/59 is trying to acquire lock:
  (&h->lock#2){+.+.-.}, at: mb_cache_shrink_scan

 but task is already holding lock:
  (&h->lock#2){+.+.-.}, at:  mb_cache_shrink_scan

 other info that might help us debug this:
  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0
        ----
   lock(&h->lock#2);
   lock(&h->lock#2);

  *** DEADLOCK ***

  May be due to missing lock nesting notation

 2 locks held by kswapd0/59:
  #0:  (shrinker_rwsem){+.+...}, at: rt_down_read_trylock
  #1:  (&h->lock#2){+.+.-.}, at: mb_cache_shrink_scan
