Subject: [RFC PATCH 02/12] locking/lockdep: Add a new terminal lock type
A terminal lock is a lock where further locking or unlocking on another
lock is not allowed. IOW, no forward dependency is permitted.
With such a restriction in place, we don't really need to do a full
validation of the lock chain involving a terminal lock. Instead,
we just check if there is any further locking or unlocking on another
lock when a terminal lock is being held.
Only spinlocks which are acquired by the _irq or _irqsave variants
or in IRQ disabled context should be classified as terminal locks.
By adding this new lock type, we can save entries in lock_chains[],
chain_hlocks[], list_entries[] and stack_trace[]. By marking suitable
locks as terminal, we reduce the chance of overflowing those tables
allowing them to focus on locks that can have both forward and backward
dependencies.
