Since the rewrote of prandom_u32(), in the commit mentioned below, the
function uses sleeping locks which extracing random numbers and filling
the batch.
This breaks lockdep on PREEMPT_RT because lock_pin_lock() disables
interrupts while calling __lock_pin_lock(). This can't be moved earlier
because the main user of the function (rq_pin_lock()) invokes that
function after disabling interrupts in order to acquire the lock.

The cookie does not require random numbers as its goal is to provide a
random value in order to notice unexpected "unlock + lock" sites.

Use sched_clock() to provide random numbers.

kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.

To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong.  The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.

All filesystem syctls now get reviewed by fs folks. This commit
follows the commit of fs, move the prove_locking and lock_stat sysctls
to its own file, kernel/lockdep.c.

<title>locking: Add lock contention tracepoints</title>

This adds two new lock contention tracepoints like below:

 * lock:contention_begin
 * lock:contention_end

The lock:contention_begin takes a flags argument to classify locks.  I
found it useful to identify what kind of locks it's tracing like if
it's spinning or sleeping, reader-writer lock, real-time, and per-cpu.

Move tracepoint definitions into mutex.c so that we can use them
without lockdep.

When dumping lock_classes information via /proc/lockdep, we can't take
the lockdep lock as the lock hold time is indeterminate. Iterating
over all_lock_classes without holding lock can be dangerous as there
is a slight chance that it may branch off to other lists leading to
infinite loop or even access invalid memory if changes are made to
all_lock_classes list in parallel.

To avoid this problem, iteration of lock classes is now done directly
on the lock_classes array itself. The lock_classes_in_use bitmap is
checked to see if the lock class is being used. To avoid iterating
the full array all the times, a new max_lock_class_idx value is added
to track the maximum lock_class index that is currently being used.

We can theoretically take the lockdep lock for iterating all_lock_classes
when other lockdep files (lockdep_stats and lock_stat) are accessed as
the lock hold time will be shorter for them. For consistency, they are
also modified to iterate the lock_classes array directly.

A kernel exception was hit when trying to dump /proc/lockdep_chains after
lockdep report "BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!":

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00054005450e05c3

  seq_read_iter+0x3cc/0x5fc
  proc_reg_read_iter+0xdc/0x1d4

The cause of the problem is the function lock_chain_get_class() will
shift lock_classes index by 1, but the index don't need to be shifted
anymore since commit 01bb6f0af992 ("locking/lockdep: Change the range
of class_idx in held_lock struct") already change the index to start
from 0.

The lock_classes[-1] located at chain_hlocks array. When printing
lock_classes[-1] after the chain_hlocks entries are modified, the
exception happened.

The output of lockdep_chains are incorrect due to this problem too.

The cause of the problem is the function lock_chain_get_class() will
shift lock_classes index by 1, but the index don't need to be shifted
anymore since commit 01bb6f0af992 ("locking/lockdep: Change the range
of class_idx in held_lock struct") already change the index to start
from 0.

The lock_classes[-1] located at chain_hlocks array. When printing
lock_classes[-1] after the chain_hlocks entries are modified, the
exception happened.

The output of lockdep_chains are incorrect due to this problem too.

<title>locking/lockdep: Avoid potential access of invalid memory in lock_class</title>

It was found that reading /proc/lockdep after a lockdep splat may
potentially cause an access to freed memory if lockdep_unregister_key()
is called after the splat but before access to /proc/lockdep [1]. This
is due to the fact that graph_lock() call in lockdep_unregister_key()
fails after the clearing of debug_locks by the splat process.

After lockdep_unregister_key() is called, the lock_name may be freed
but the corresponding lock_class structure still have a reference to
it. That invalid memory pointer will then be accessed when /proc/lockdep
is read by a user and a use-after-free (UAF) error will be reported if
KASAN is enabled.

To fix this problem, lockdep_unregister_key() is now modified to always
search for a matching key irrespective of the debug_locks state and
zap the corresponding lock class if a matching one is found.
