locking/lockdep: Zap lock classes even with lock debugging disabled
The following commit:
a0b0fd53e1e6 ("locking/lockdep: Free lock classes that are no longer in use")
changed the behavior of lockdep_free_key_range() from
unconditionally zapping lock classes into only zapping lock classes if
debug_lock == true. Not zapping lock classes if debug_lock == false leaves
dangling pointers in several lockdep datastructures, e.g. lock_class::name
in the all_lock_classes list.
The shell command "cat /proc/lockdep" causes the kernel to iterate the
all_lock_classes list. Hence the "unable to handle kernel paging request" cash
that Shenghui encountered by running cat /proc/lockdep.
Since the new behavior can cause cat /proc/lockdep to crash, restore the
pre-v5.1 behavior.
This patch avoids that cat /proc/lockdep triggers the following crash
with debug_lock == false:
