I have, several times now, explained why PROC is special.

You seem to still think it can be used like the soft/hard-irq ones, this
is fundamentally not so.

Does something like so help?

Subject: lockdep: Untangle xhlock history save/restore from task independence

Where XHLOCK_{SOFT,HARD} are save/restore points in the xhlocks[] to
ensure the temporal IRQ events don't interact with task state, the
XHLOCK_PROC is a fundament different beast that just happens to share
the interface.

The purpose of XHLOCK_PROC is to annotate independent execution inside
one task. For example workqueues, each work should appear to run in its
own 'pristine' 'task'.

Remove XHLOCK_PROC in favour of its own interface to avoid confusion.
