Subject: [PATCH v2 29/29] staging: lustre: quiet lockdep recursive lock warning

From: Andreas Dilger <andreas.dilger@...el.com>

Lockdep complains about potential recursive locking during mount
because the client configuration log is holding a lock on the MGC
obd_device to prevent it from being torn down, while also getting
mutexes on the MDC and OSC devices as they are instantiated:

 Lustre: Mounted myth-client
=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
4.7.0-rc2-vm-nfs+ #127 Tainted: G         C
---------------------------------------------

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation
2 locks held by ll_cfg_requeue/5928:
 #0:  (&cli->cl_sem){.+.+.+}, at: mgc_requeue_thread+0x15d/0x730 [mgc]
 #1:  (&cld->cld_lock){+.+.+.}, at: mgc_process_log+0x5e/0xf80 [mgc]
CPU: 0 PID: 5928 Comm: ll_cfg_requeue

Add a separate lock class for the MGC callpath, since it will always
be held first, and none of the other obd_device locks should ever
be held concurrently.
