Arjan, here's a case that disproves your rule of thumb that rwsems
are equivalent to mutexes as far as correctness goes: you can't have
an AB-BA deadlock with nested rwsems when using down_read(). In other
words, the following:
down_read(lock_1);
down_read(lock_2);
down_read(lock_2);
down_read(lock_1);
is perfectly safe, but it cannot be converted to
mutex_lock(lock_1);
mutex_lock(lock_2);
mutex_lock(lock_2);
mutex_lock(lock_1);
But this is a pretty small corner case I guess...
---
Lockdep warns when userspace creates a QP that uses different CQs for
send completions and receive completions, because both CQs are locked
and their mutexes belong to the same lock class. However, we know
that the mutexes are distinct and the nesting is safe (there is no
possibility of AB-BA deadlock because the mutexes are locked with
down_read()), so annotate the situation with SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING to
get rid of the lockdep warning.
