Lockdep already has hooks in the lock functions and maps lock instances to

lock classes. We build on that. The graph below shows the relation between

Line 48 shows statistics for the second subclass (/1) of &rq->lock class
|
||||
(subclass starts from 0), since in this case, as line 50 suggests,
|

double_rq_lock actually acquires a nested lock of two spinlocks.
