The CPU hotplug callbacks are not covered by lockdep versus the cpu hotplug
rwsem.
CPU0 CPU1
cpuhp_setup_state(STATE, startup, teardown);
cpus_read_lock();
invoke_callback_on_ap();
kick_hotplug_thread(ap);
wait_for_completion(); hotplug_thread_fn()
lock(m);
do_stuff();
unlock(m);
Lockdep does not know about this dependency and will not trigger on the
following code sequence:
lock(m);
cpus_read_lock();
Add a lockdep map and connect the initiators lock chain with the hotplug
thread lock chain, so potential deadlocks can be detected.
