cpuhotplug: Link lock stacks for hotplug callbacks
The CPU hotplug callbacks are not covered by lockdep versus the cpu hotplug rwsem. CPU0 CPU1 cpuhp_setup_state(STATE, startup, teardown); cpus_read_lock(); invoke_callback_on_ap(); kick_hotplug_thread(ap); wait_for_completion(); hotplug_thread_fn() lock(m); do_stuff(); unlock(m); Lockdep does not know about this dependency and will not trigger on the following code sequence: lock(m); cpus_read_lock(); Add a lockdep map and connect the initiators lock chain with the hotplug thread lock chain, so potential deadlocks can be detected.
