[PATCH v3 01/30] locking/lockdep: Rename deadlock check functions

[Yuyang Du]

Deadlock checks are performed at two places:

 - Within current's held lock stack, check for lock recursion deadlock.
 - Within dependency graph, check for lock inversion deadlock.

Rename the two relevant functions for later use. Plus, with
recursive-read locks, only a dependency circle in graph is not a
sufficient condition for lock inversion deadlocks anymore, so
check_noncircular() is not entirely accurate.

No functional change.
