Hello all,

This is _RFC_.

I want to request for comments about if it's reasonable conceptually. If
yes, I want to resend after working it more carefully.

Could you let me know your opinions about this?

Subject: [RFC] workqueue: remove manual lockdep uses to detect deadlocks

We introduced the following commit to detect deadlocks caused by
wait_for_completion() in flush_{workqueue, work}() and other locks. But
now LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS is introduced, such works are automatically done
by LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS. So it doesn't have to be done manually anymore.
Removed it.

commit 4e6045f134784f4b158b3c0f7a282b04bd816887
workqueue: debug flushing deadlocks with lockdep
