Subject: [PATCH 0/6] lockdep enhancements for bcachefs

This adds:
 - lockdep_set_no_check_recursion(), which allows lockdep checking for
   bcachefs six locks

bcachefs has a cycle detector for deadlock avoidance; there is no lock
ordering for lockdep to check w.r.t. other btree node locks. However, we
do want held btree node locks to be tracked, and lock ordering to be
checked w.r.t. other locks.

 - lock_class_is_held(), which we use for some extra locking assertion

We want to assert e.g. that we're not blocking on IO with btree node
locks held.

Kent Overstreet (6):
  locking/lockdep: lock_class_is_held()
  locking/lockdep: lockdep_set_no_check_recursion()
  bcachefs: Assert that btree node locks aren't being leaked
  bcachefs: Use lock_class_is_held() for btree locking asserts
  bcachefs: Check for btree locks held on transaction init
  bcachefs: Switch to lockdep_set_no_check_recursion()
