BTW., and I just noticed this, "LOCKDEP_COMPLETE" is a misnomer: it should be 
"LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS".

Think about it, 'complete' is an adjective, and the current name suggests 'lockdep 
is complete' or so, so it's pretty confusing.

So let's do a (separate) renaming patch as well.

Also, while at it:

>  	bool "Lock debugging: make lockdep work for crosslocks"

Please word that more directly - lockdep doesn't have to be made to work with 
crosslocks - it works with them, what the option does is that it enables crosslock 
support. I.e.:

	bool "Lock debugging: enable cross-locking checks in lockdep"

or so.

Thanks,
