Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 02/10] locking/mutex: introduce devm_mutex_init

Hello Waiman, Marek

Thanks for the review.

I've never used lockdep for debug but it seems preferable to
keep that feature working. It could be look like this:

2.25.1



And now I would drop the the refactoring patch with moving down 
mutex_destroy. devm block is big enough to be declared standalone.
