[patch 47/50] rtmutex: Prevent lockdep false positive with PI futexes

[Thomas Gleixner]

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

On PREEMPT_RT the futex hashbucket spinlock becomes 'sleeping' and rtmutex
based. That causes a lockdep false positive because some of the futex
functions invoke spin_unlock(&hb->lock) with the wait_lock of the rtmutex
associated to the pi_futex held.  spin_unlock() in turn takes wait_lock of
the rtmutex on which the spinlock is based which makes lockdep notice a
lock recursion.

Give the futex/rtmutex wait_lock a seperate key.
