lockdep_init_map() depends on CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC IIRC, but the data structure
change you made depends on CONFIG_LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS:

Which is risking a future build failure at minimum.

Isn't lockdep_map a zero size structure that is always defined? If yes then
there's no need for an #ifdef.

Why is the lockdep_map passed in to the init function? Since it's wrapped in an
ugly fashion anyway, why not introduce a clean inline function that calls
lockdep_init_map() on the returned structure.

No #ifdefs required, and no uglification of the alloc_disk_node() interface.

Thanks,
