This depends on the part 0 patches sent out previously https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1549913486-16799-1-git-send-email-longman@redhat.com This part lays the foundation for part 2 without making any functional changes. This part includes the following changes: 1) Move code around and rename kernel/locking/rwsem.h to kernel/locking/rwsem-xadd.h as it will be specific to rwsem-xadd.c (patches 1-4). 2) Enhance the DEBUG_RWSEMS_WARN_ON() macro to provide more information and add additional checks (patches 5 & 6). 3) Make the core qspinlock_stat.h code generic (lock event counting) so that it can be used by all the architectures as well as other locking subsystems such as rwsem (patches 7-10). Lock event counting help us visualize how frequently a code path is being used as well as spotting abnormal behavior due to bugs in the code without noticeably affecting kernel performance and hence behavior. Both (2) and (3) are useful debugging aids.
