So I think we'll end up hitting a lockdep deficiency and not trigger the
splat on flush_work(), see also:

  https://lwn.net/Articles/332801/

lock_map_acquire_read() is a read-recursive and will not in fact create
any dependencies because of this issue.

In specific, check_prev_add() has:

	if (next->read == 2 || prev->read == 2)
		return 1;

This means that for:

	lock_map_acquire_read(W)(2)
	down_write(A)		(0)

			down_write(A)		(0)
			wait_for_completion(C)	(0)

					lock_map_acquire_read(W)(2)
					complete(C)		(0)

All the (2) effectively go away and 'solve' our current issue, but:

	lock_map_acquire_read(W)(2)
	mutex_lock(A)		(0)

			mutex_lock(A)		(0)
			lock_map_acquire(W)	(0)

as per flush_work() will not in fact trigger anymore either.
See also the below locking-selftest changes.


Now, this means I also have to consider the existing
lock_map_acquire_read() users and if they really wanted to be recursive
or not. When I change lock_map_acquire_read() to use
lock_acquire_shared() this annotation no longer suffices and the splat
comes back.


Also, the acquire_read() annotation will (obviously) no longer work to
cure this problem when we switch to normal read (1), because then the
generated chain:

	W(1) -> A(0) -> C(0) -> W(1)

spells deadlock, since W isn't allowed to recurse.


/me goes dig through commit:

  e159489baa71 ("workqueue: relax lockdep annotation on flush_work()")

to figure out wth the existing users really want.
