[PATCH review for 3.18 01/14] locking/lockdep: Add nest_lock integrity test

From: Levin, Alexander (Sasha Levin)
Date: Sun Sep 24 2017 - 21:20:12 EST


From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 7fb4a2cea6b18dab56d609530d077f168169ed6b ]

Boqun reported that hlock->references can overflow. Add a debug test
for that to generate a clear error when this happens.

Without this, lockdep is likely to report a mysterious failure on
unlock.
