Hmm, upstream has two commits with same author, same date, same subject, different hash, different content.
I couldn't find from https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1547093005-26085-1-git-send-email-longman@redhat.com that
we want to patch both __lock_set_class() and __lock_downgrade(), but I found that the tip-bot has patched
__lock_downgrade() on "2019-01-21 11:29" and __lock_set_class() on "2019-02-04  8:56".
Seems that we by error patched both functions, though patching both functions should be harmless...
