Subject[PATCH] cgroups: fix lockdep subclasses overflow
I enabled all cgroup subsystems when compiling kernel, and then:
# mount -t cgroup -o net_cls xxx /mnt
# mkdir /mnt/0

This showed up immediately:
BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_SUBCLASSES too low!
turning off the locking correctness validator.

It's caused by the cgroup hierarchy lock:
for (i = 0; i < CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT; i++) {
struct cgroup_subsys *ss = subsys[i];
if (ss->root == root)
mutex_lock_nested(&ss->hierarchy_mutex, i);
}

Now we have 9 cgroup subsystems, and the above 'i' for net_cls is 9, but
MAX_LOCKDEP_SUBCLASSES is 8.

This patch uses different lockdep keys for different subsystems.
