When lockdep is notified of lock contention, lockdep expects its
internal state to indicate the lock is held. Since trylocks cannot
reflect this state unless the lock is actually acquired, contention
stats cannot be collected for trylocks.
Fixes:
[ 1473.912280] =================================
[ 1473.913180] [ BUG: bad contention detected! ]

[ 1473.915684] ---------------------------------

[ 1473.919060] but there are no locks held!
