[PATCH] lockdep: fix static keys in module-allocated percpu areas
lockdep got confused by certain locks in modules: INFO: trying to register non-static key. the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation. turning off the locking correctness validator. Call Trace: [<ffffffff8026f40d>] dump_trace+0xaa/0x3f2 [<ffffffff8026f78f>] show_trace+0x3a/0x60 [<ffffffff8026f9d1>] dump_stack+0x15/0x17 [<ffffffff802abfe8>] __lock_acquire+0x724/0x9bb [<ffffffff802ac52b>] lock_acquire+0x4d/0x67 [<ffffffff80267139>] rt_spin_lock+0x3d/0x41 [<ffffffff8839ed3f>] :ip_conntrack:__ip_ct_refresh_acct+0x131/0x174 [<ffffffff883a1334>] :ip_conntrack:udp_packet+0xbf/0xcf [<ffffffff8839f9af>] :ip_conntrack:ip_conntrack_in+0x394/0x4a7 [<ffffffff8023551f>] nf_iterate+0x41/0x7f [<ffffffff8025946a>] nf_hook_slow+0x64/0xd5 [<ffffffff802369a2>] ip_rcv+0x24e/0x506 [...] Steven Rostedt found the bug: static_obj() check did not take PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM into account, so in-module DEFINE_PER_CPU-area locks were triggering this message.
