Boqun Feng 43be4388e9 lockdep: Put graph lock/unlock under lock_recursion protection
A warning was hit when running xfstests/generic/068 in a Hyper-V guest:

[...] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[...] DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lockdep_hardirqs_enabled())
[...] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1350 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:5280 check_flags.part.0+0x165/0x170

[...]  ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30

The cause of the problem is we have call chain lockdep_unregister_key()
-> <irq disabled by raw_local_irq_save()> lockdep_unlock() ->
arch_spin_unlock() -> __pv_queued_spin_unlock_slowpath() -> pv_kick() ->
__send_ipi_one() -> trace_hyperv_send_ipi_one().

Although this particular warning is triggered because Hyper-V has a
trace point in ipi sending, but in general arch_spin_unlock() may call
another function having a trace point in it, so put the arch_spin_lock()
and arch_spin_unlock() after lock_recursion protection to fix this
problem and avoid similiar problems.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
