[PATCH tip/core/rcu 3/3] rcu: give different levels of the rcu_node hierarchy distinct lockdep names

From: Paul E. McKenney

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Previously, each level of the rcu_node hierarchy had the same rather
unimaginative name: "&rcu_node_class[i]". This makes lockdep diagnostics
involving these lockdep classes less helpful than would be nice.
This patch fixes this by giving each level of the rcu_node hierarchy
a distinct name: "rcu_node_level_0", "rcu_node_level_1", and so on.
This version of the patch includes improved diagnostics suggested by
Josh Triplett and Peter Zijlstra.
