A kernel exception was hit when trying to dump /proc/lockdep_chains after
lockdep report "BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!":

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00054005450e05c3
...
00054005450e05c3] address between user and kernel address ranges
...
pc : [0xffffffece769b3a8] string+0x50/0x10c

  lc_show+0xb8/0x128
  seq_read_iter+0x3cc/0x5fc
  proc_reg_read_iter+0xdc/0x1d4

The cause of the problem is the function lock_chain_get_class() will
shift lock_classes index by 1, but the index don't need to be shifted
anymore since commit 01bb6f0af992 ("locking/lockdep: Change the range
of class_idx in held_lock struct") already change the index to start
from 0.

The lock_classes[-1] located at chain_hlocks array. When printing
lock_classes[-1] after the chain_hlocks entries are modified, the
exception happened.

The output of lockdep_chains are incorrect due to this problem too.

Fixes: f611e8cf98ec ("lockdep: Take read/write status in consideration when generate chainkey")

In preparation for converting bit_spin_lock to rwlock in zsmalloc so
that multiple writers of zspages can run at the same time but those
zspages are supposed to be different zspage instance.  Thus, it's not
deadlock.  This patch adds write_lock_nested to support the case for
LOCKDEP.

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

 - Documentation updates, perhaps most notably Neil Brown's writeup of
   the reference-counting analogy to RCU.

 - Expedited grace-period cleanups.

 - Remove CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ due to lack of valid users. I have asked
   around, posted a blog entry, and sent this series to LKML without
   result.

 - Miscellaneous fixes.

 - RCU callback offloading updates, perhaps most notably Frederic
   Weisbecker's updates allowing CPUs booted in the de-offloaded state
   to be offloaded at runtime.

 - nolibc fixes from Willy Tarreau and Anmar Faizi, but also including
   Mark Brown's addition of gettid().

 - RCU Tasks Trace fixes, including changes that increase the
   scalability of call_rcu_tasks_trace() for the BPF folks (Martin Lau
   and KP Singh).

 - Various fixes including those from Wander Lairson Costa and Li
   Zhijian.

 - Fixes plus addition of tests for the increased call_rcu_tasks_trace()
   scalability.

Optimistic spinning needs to be terminated when the spinning waiter is not
longer the top waiter on the lock, but the condition is negated. It
terminates if the waiter is the top waiter, which is defeating the whole
purpose.

<title>lockdep: Remove softirq accounting on PREEMPT_RT.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0c1d7a2c2d32fac7ff4a644724b2d52a64184645</id>
<content type='text'>
There is not really a softirq context on PREEMPT_RT.  Softirqs on
PREEMPT_RT are always invoked within the context of a threaded
interrupt handler or within ksoftirqd. The "in-softirq" context is
preemptible and is protected by a per-CPU lock to ensure mutual
exclusion.

There is no difference on PREEMPT_RT between spin_lock_irq() and
spin_lock() because the former does not disable interrupts. Therefore
if a lock is used in_softirq() and locked once with spin_lock_irq()
then lockdep will report this with "inconsistent {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} -&gt;
{IN-SOFTIRQ-W} usage".

Teach lockdep that we don't really do softirqs on -RT.
