mainlining shenanigans

The CXL "root" device, ACPI0017, is an attach point for coordinating platform level CXL resources and is the parent device for a CXL port topology tree. As such it has distinct locking rules relative to other CXL subsystem objects, but because it is an ACPI device the lock class is established well before it is given to the cxl_acpi driver. However, the lockdep API does support changing the lock class "live" for situations like this. Add a device_lock_set_class() helper that a driver can use in ->probe() to set a custom lock class, and device_lock_reset_class() to return to the default "no validate" class before the custom lock class key goes out of scope after ->remove(). Note the helpers are all macros to support dead code elimination in the CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=n case, however device_set_lock_class() still needs #ifdef CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING since lockdep_match_class() explicitly does not have a helper in the CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=n case (see comment in lockdep.h). The lockdep API needs 2 small tweaks to prevent "unused" warnings for the @key argument to lock_set_class(), and a new lock_set_novalidate_class() is added to supplement lockdep_set_novalidate_class() in the cases where the lock class is converted while the lock is held.

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.
