Subject[RFC v2 2/6] lockdep: LOCKED_ACCESS: Introduce locked access class and acqchain
Date
As a similar concept as a lock class, a locked access class is a group
of locks and related data accesses of those locks. A locked access
class also contains the structures for allocation and lookup of
acqchains and accesses.

The address of a locked access class is used as its key, we tag a group
of locks with a locked access class by setting the content of the
group's lock_class_key to be the key(i.e. address) of locked access
class, and we can do this trick because, AFAIK, lockdep only uses the
address of a lock_class_key. However, although this doesn't change the
size of a lock_class_key, this does change the alignment requirement.

And tagging a lock_class_key with a locked access class is the step #1
to use LOCKED_ACCESS for a locking mechanism.

As a similar concept as a lock class chain, an acqchain is short for
acquire chain, which is a chain of lock acquisitions. The difference
between a lock class chain and an acqchain is that a lock class chain is
keyed by the hash sum of the class keys, whereas an acqchain is keyed by
the hash sum of the acquire ips. We introduce acqchains here because in
LOCKED_ACCESS, we care more about the locations of critical sections.

This patch defines the structures for those concepts, along with the
manipulation operations. Besides, config option CONFIG_LOCKED_ACCESS
is introduced in this patch, too.
