[PATCH v3] locking/lockdep: Fix meaningless usages output of lock classes

From: Xiongwei Song <sxwjean@xxxxxxxxx>

When enabling CONFIG_LOCK_STAT, then CONFIG_LOCKDEP is forcedly enabled.
We can get output from /proc/lockdep, which currently includes usages of
lock classes. But the usages are meaningless, see the output below:

/ # cat /proc/lockdep
all lock classes:
ffffffff9af63350 ....: cgroup_mutex

ffffffff9af54eb8 ....: (console_sem).lock

ffffffff9af54e60 ....: console_lock

ffffffff9ae74c38 ....: console_owner_lock

ffffffff9ae74c80 ....: console_owner

ffffffff9ae66e60 ....: cpu_hotplug_lock

Only one usage context for each lock, this is because each usage is only
changed in mark_lock() that is in CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING defined section,
however in the test situation, it's not.

The fix is to move the usages reading and seq_print from
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING undefined setcion to its defined section. Also,
locks_after list of lock_class is empty when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING
undefined, so do the same thing as what have done for usages of lock
classes.

With this patch with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING undefined, we can get the
results below:

/ # cat /proc/lockdep
all lock classes:
ffffffff85163290: cgroup_mutex
ffffffff85154dd8: (console_sem).lock
ffffffff85154d80: console_lock
ffffffff85074b58: console_owner_lock
ffffffff85074ba0: console_owner
ffffffff85066d60: cpu_hotplug_lock

a class key and the relevant class name each line.
