Lockdep uses lock class keys in its analysis. init_rwsem() instantiates
one lock class key with each init_rwsem() user as follows:
#define init_rwsem(sem) \
do { \
static struct lock_class_key __key; \
\
__init_rwsem((sem), #sem, &__key); \
} while (0)
Commit e4544b63a7ee ("f2fs: move f2fs to use reader-unfair rwsems") reduced
the number of lock class keys from one per init_rwsem() user to one per
file in which init_f2fs_rwsem() is used. This causes the same lock class key
to be associated with multiple f2fs rwsems and also triggers a number of
false positive lockdep deadlock reports. Fix this by again instantiating one
lock class key with each init_f2fs_rwsem() caller.

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.
