Subject: [PATCH 5.4 046/141] powerpc/iommu: Annotate nested lock for lockdep

From: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@...abs.ru>

[ Upstream commit cc7130bf119add37f36238343a593b71ef6ecc1e ]

The IOMMU table is divided into pools for concurrent mappings and each
pool has a separate spinlock. When taking the ownership of an IOMMU group
to pass through a device to a VM, we lock these spinlocks which triggers
a false negative warning in lockdep (below).

This fixes it by annotating the large pool's spinlock as a nest lock
which makes lockdep not complaining when locking nested locks if
the nest lock is locked already.

===
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
5.11.0-le_syzkaller_a+fstn1 #100 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
qemu-system-ppc/4129 is trying to acquire lock:
c0000000119bddb0 (&(p->lock)/1){....}-{2:2}, at: iommu_take_ownership+0xac/0x1e0

but task is already holding lock:
c0000000119bdd30 (&(p->lock)/1){....}-{2:2}, at: iommu_take_ownership+0xac/0x1e0

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(&(p->lock)/1);
  lock(&(p->lock)/1);
