Minchan Kim 4a57d6bbae locking/rwlocks: introduce write_lock_nested
In preparation for converting bit_spin_lock to rwlock in zsmalloc so
that multiple writers of zspages can run at the same time but those
zspages are supposed to be different zspage instance.  Thus, it's not
deadlock.  This patch adds write_lock_nested to support the case for
LOCKDEP.

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.
