[PATCH tip/core/urgent 01/10] rcu: v2: optionally leave lockdep enabled after RCU lockdep splat

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

There is no need to disable lockdep after an RCU lockdep splat, so
remove the debug_lockdeps_off() from lockdep_rcu_dereference().
To avoid repeated lockdep splats, use a static variable in the
inlined rcu_dereference_check() and rcu_dereference_protected()
macros so that a given instance splats only once, but so that
multiple instances can be detected per boot.

This is controlled by a new config variable CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_REPEATEDLY,
which is disabled by default.
