From b7d39aff91454f2534db2275f55908656ec0470c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2008 09:30:24 +0200 Subject: lockdep: spin_lock_nest_lock() Expose the new lock protection lock. This can be used to annotate places where we take multiple locks of the same class and avoid deadlocks by always taking another (top-level) lock first. NOTE: we're still bound to the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH (48) limit.
