[RFC tip/locking v2 07/13] lockdep: Support deadlock detection for recursive read in check_noncircular()

[Boqun Feng]

Currently, lockdep only has limit support for deadlock detection for
recursive read locks.

The basic idea of the detection is:

Since we make __bfs() able to traverse only the strong dependency paths,
so we report a circular deadlock if we could find a circle of a strong
dependency path.
