Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: Fix lock_is_held() on recursion
commit f2513cde93f0957d5dc6c09bc24b0cccd27d8e1d upstream.
The main lock_is_held() user is lockdep_assert_held(), avoid false
assertions in lockdep_off() sections by unconditionally reporting the
lock is taken.
[ the reason this is important is a lockdep_assert_held() in ttwu()
which triggers a warning under lockdep_off() as in printk() which
can trigger another wakeup and lock up due to spinlock
recursion, as reported and heroically debugged by Arne Jansen ]
