xfs: clean up inode lockdep annotations
Lockdep annotations are a maintenance nightmare. Locking has to be modified to suit the limitations of the annotations, and we're always having to fix the annotations because they are unable to express the complexity of locking heirarchies correctly. So, next up, we've got more issues with lockdep annotations for inode locking w.r.t. XFS_LOCK_PARENT: - lockdep classes are exclusive and can't be ORed together to form new classes. - IOLOCK needs multiple PARENT subclasses to express the changes needed for the readdir locking rework needed to stop the endless flow of lockdep false positives involving readdir calling filldir under the ILOCK. - there are only 8 unique lockdep subclasses available, so we can't create a generic solution. IOWs we need to treat the 3-bit space available to each lock type differently: - IOLOCK uses xfs_lock_two_inodes(), so needs: - at least 2 IOLOCK subclasses - at least 2 IOLOCK_PARENT subclasses - MMAPLOCK uses xfs_lock_two_inodes(), so needs: - at least 2 MMAPLOCK subclasses - ILOCK uses xfs_lock_inodes with up to 5 inodes, so needs: - at least 5 ILOCK subclasses - one ILOCK_PARENT subclass - one RTBITMAP subclass - one RTSUM subclass For the IOLOCK, split the space into two sets of subclasses. For the MMAPLOCK, just use half the space for the one subclass to match the non-parent lock classes of the IOLOCK. For the ILOCK, use 0-4 as the ILOCK subclasses, 5-7 for the remaining individual subclasses. Because they are now all different, modify xfs_lock_inumorder() to handle the nested subclasses, and to assert fail if passed an invalid subclass. Further, annotate xfs_lock_inodes() to assert fail if an invalid combination of lock primitives and inode counts are passed that would result in a lockdep subclass annotation overflow.
