Subject: [PATCH v6 2/2] locking/lockdep: Test no new string literal is created in lockdep_set_subclass()

Add a test case to ensure that no new name string literal will be
created in lockdep_set_subclass(), otherwise a warning will be triggered
in look_up_lock_class(). Add this to catch the problem in the future.
