This reverts commit 670d934a1ea178d7543e6f50b515c76cebeb2fcf which was
commit 71492580571467fb7177aade19c18ce7486267f5 upstream.

Tetsuo rightly points out that the backport here is incorrect, as it
touches the __lock_set_class function instead of the intended
__lock_downgrade function.

commit 71492580571467fb7177aade19c18ce7486267f5 upstream.

Tetsuo Handa had reported he saw an incorrect "downgrading a read lock"
warning right after a previous lockdep warning. It is likely that the
previous warning turned off lock debugging causing the lockdep to have
inconsistency states leading to the lock downgrade warning.

Fix that by add a check for debug_locks at the beginning of
__lock_downgrade().

<title>locking/lockdep: Fix debug_locks off performance problem</title>

<id>urn:sha1:81301a15a267ba132c07e01c70d5fbe91069bdfb</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 9506a7425b094d2f1d9c877ed5a78f416669269b ]

It was found that when debug_locks was turned off because of a problem
found by the lockdep code, the system performance could drop quite
significantly when the lock_stat code was also configured into the
kernel. For instance, parallel kernel build time on a 4-socket x86-64
server nearly doubled.

Further analysis into the cause of the slowdown traced back to the
frequent call to debug_locks_off() from the __lock_acquired() function
probably due to some inconsistent lockdep states with debug_locks
off. The debug_locks_off() function did an unconditional atomic xchg
to write a 0 value into debug_locks which had already been set to 0.
This led to severe cacheline contention in the cacheline that held
debug_locks.  As debug_locks is being referenced in quite a few different
places in the kernel, this greatly slow down the system performance.

To prevent that trashing of debug_locks cacheline, lock_acquired()
and lock_contended() now checks the state of debug_locks before
proceeding. The debug_locks_off() function is also modified to check
debug_locks before calling __debug_locks_off().

<title>locking/lockdep: Do not record IRQ state within lockdep code</title>

[ Upstream commit fcc784be837714a9173b372ff9fb9b514590dad9 ]

While debugging where things were going wrong with mapping
enabling/disabling interrupts with the lockdep state and actual real
enabling and disabling interrupts, I had to silent the IRQ
disabling/enabling in debug_check_no_locks_freed() because it was
always showing up as it was called before the splat was.

Use raw_local_irq_save/restore() for not only debug_check_no_locks_freed()
but for all internal lockdep functions, as they hide useful information
about where interrupts were used incorrectly last.

[ Upstream commit 7fb4a2cea6b18dab56d609530d077f168169ed6b ]

Boqun reported that hlock-&gt;references can overflow. Add a debug test
for that to generate a clear error when this happens.

Without this, lockdep is likely to report a mysterious failure on
unlock.

<content type='text'>
Since commit:

  4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines")

printk() requires KERN_CONT to continue log messages. Lots of printk()
in lockdep.c and print_ip_sym() don't have it. As the result lockdep
reports are completely messed up.

Add missing KERN_CONT and inline print_ip_sym() where necessary.

Example of a messed up report:

  0-rc5+ #41 Not tainted
  -------------------------------------------------------
  syz-executor0/5036 is trying to acquire lock:
   (
  rtnl_mutex
  ){+.+.+.}
  , at:
  [&lt;ffffffff86b3d6ac&gt;] rtnl_lock+0x1c/0x20
  but task is already holding lock:
   (
  &amp;net-&gt;packet.sklist_lock
  ){+.+...}
  , at:
  [&lt;ffffffff873541a6&gt;] packet_diag_dump+0x1a6/0x1920
  which lock already depends on the new lock.
  the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
  -&gt; #3
   (
  &amp;net-&gt;packet.sklist_lock
  +.+...}
  ...

Without this patch all scripts that parse kernel bug reports are broken.

Use __jhash_mix() to mix the class_idx into the class_key. This
function provides better mixing than the previously used, home grown
mix function.

Leave hashing to the professionals :-)
