make lockdep happy with r/o bind mounts
PATCH 1/1 make lockdep happy with r/o bind mounts
With the r/o bind mount patches, we can have as many spinlocks nested as there are CPUs on the system. Lockdep freaks out after 8.
So, create a new lockdep class of locks for the mnt_writer spinlocks, and initialize each of the cpu locks to be in a different class.
It should shut up warnings like this, while still allowing some of the lockdep goodness to remain:

The patch implements the right solution for this "invent your own lock" situation...
