Subject[PATCH] lockdep: debug_show_all_locks & debug_show_held_locks vs. debug_locks

And here is some addition.

[PATCH] lockdep: debug_show_all_locks & debug_show_held_locks vs. debug_locks

lockdep's data shouldn't be used when debug_locks == 0
because it's not updated after this, so it's more misleading
than helpful.

PS: probably lockdep's current-> fields should be reset after
it turns debug_locks off: so, after printing a bug report, but
before return from exported functions, but there are really
a lot of these possibilities (e.g. after DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON),
so, something could be missed. (Of course direct use of this
fields isn't recommended either.)
