Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: Do no validate wait context for novalidate class
The novalidate class is ignored in the lockchain validation but is
considered in the wait context validation.
If a mutex and a spinlock_t is ignored by using
lockdep_set_novalidate_class() then both locks will share the same lock
class. From the wait validation point of view the mutex will then appear
like a spinlock_t and the validator will complain if another mutex will
be acquired.
Ignore the nonvalidate locks from wait context checking.
