which is a false positive caused by hugetlb pmd sharing code which
allocates a new pmd from withing mappint->i_mmap_mutex. If this
allocation causes reclaim then the lockdep detector complains that we
might self-deadlock.
This is not correct though, because hugetlb pages are not reclaimable so
their mapping will be never touched from the reclaim path.
The patch tells lockup detector that hugetlb i_mmap_mutex is special
by assigning it a separate lockdep class so it won't report possible
deadlocks on unrelated mappings.
