lockdep: Add lock_set_cmp_fn() annotation

This implements a new interface to lockdep, lock_set_cmp_fn(), for
defining a custom ordering when taking multiple locks of the same
class.

This is an alternative to subclasses, but can not fully replace them
since subclasses allow lock hierarchies with other clasees
inter-twined, while this relies on pure class nesting.

Specifically, if A is our nesting class then:

  A/0 <- B <- A/1

Would be a valid lock order with subclasses (each subclass really is a
full class from the validation PoV) but not with this annotation,
which requires all nesting to be consecutive.

Example output:
