Some kernel functions must be called without holding a specific lock.
Add lockdep_assert_not_held() to be used in these functions to detect
incorrect calls while holding a lock.

lockdep_assert_not_held() provides the opposite functionality of
lockdep_assert_held() which is used to assert calls that require
holding a specific lock.

Incorporates suggestions from Peter Zijlstra to avoid misfires when
lockdep_off() is employed.

The need for lockdep_assert_not_held() came up in a discussion on
ath10k patch. ath10k_drain_tx() and i915_vma_pin_ww() are examples
of functions that can use lockdep_assert_not_held().

That's a coding style fail.

Checkpatch didn't complain. What's your preference? Does the
following work for you?

/*
  * avoid false negative lockdep_assert_not_held()
  * and lockdep_assert_held()
  */

thanks,

Yep (ideally even with a Capital and full stop).
