Ingo Molnar b2ed0998f6 tools/lib/lockdep: Fix the build on recent kernels
The following upstream commit:

  4a389810bc ("kernel/locking/lockdep.c: convert hash tables to hlists")

broke the tools/lib/lockdep build. Add trivial RCU wrappers to fix it.

These wrappers should probably be moved into their own header file.

Sasha Levin 5634bd7d2a liblockdep: Wrap kernel/locking/lockdep.c to allow usage from userspace
kernel/locking/lockdep.c deals with validating locking scenarios for
various architectures supported by the kernel. There isn't
anything kernel specific going on in lockdep, and when we
compare userspace to other architectures that don't have to deal
with irqs such as s390, they become all too similar.

We wrap kernel/locking/lockdep.c and include/linux/lockdep.h with
several headers which allow us to build and use lockdep from
userspace. We don't touch the kernel code itself which means
that any work done on lockdep in the kernel will automatically
benefit userspace lockdep as well!
