You need

commit ea319518ba3de282c13ae1cf4bf2215c5e03e67e
Author: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Fri Dec 26 15:08:55 2008 +0100

locking, percpu counters: introduce separate lock classes

Impact: fix lockdep false positives

Classify percpu_counter instances similar to regular lock objects --
that is, per instantiation site.

The networking code has increased its use of percpu_counters, which
leads to false positives if they are treated as a single class.
