locking/lockdep: Explicitly initialize wq_barrier::done::map

With the new lockdep crossrelease feature, which checks completions usage,
a false positive is reported in the workqueue code:

> Worker A : acquired of wfc.work -> wait for cpu_hotplug_lock to be released
> Task B : acquired of cpu_hotplug_lock -> wait for lock#3 to be released
> Task C : acquired of lock#3 -> wait for completion of barr->done
> (Task C is in lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked())
> Worker D : wait for wfc.work to be released -> will complete barr->done

Such a dead lock can not happen because Task C's barr->done and Worker D's
barr->done can not be the same instance.

The reason of this false positive is we initialize all wq_barrier::done
at insert_wq_barrier() via init_completion(), which makes them belong to
the same lock class, therefore, impossible circles are reported.

To fix this, explicitly initialize the lockdep map for wq_barrier::done
in insert_wq_barrier(), so that the lock class key of wq_barrier::done
is a subkey of the corresponding work_struct, as a result we won't build
a dependency between a wq_barrier with a unrelated work, and we can
differ wq barriers based on the related works, so the false positive
above is avoided.

Also define the empty lockdep_init_map_crosslock() for !CROSSRELEASE
to make the code simple and away from unnecessary #ifdefs.
