What I have been wondering about is whether the crosslock checking makes
sense from a conceptual point of view. I tried to find documentation for the
crosslock checking in Documentation/locking/lockdep-design.txt but
couldn't find a description of the crosslock checking. Shouldn't it be
documented somewhere what the crosslock checks do and what the theory is
behind these checks?

Bart.
