Boqun Feng 495f53d5cc locking/lockdep: Decrease nr_unused_locks if lock unused in zap_class()
Currently, when a lock class is allocated, nr_unused_locks will be
increased by 1, until it gets used: nr_unused_locks will be decreased by
1 in mark_lock(). However, one scenario is missed: a lock class may be
zapped without even being used once. This could result into a situation
that nr_unused_locks != 0 but no unused lock class is active in the
system, and when `cat /proc/lockdep_stats`, a WARN_ON() will
be triggered in a CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y kernel:

  [...] DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(debug_atomic_read(nr_unused_locks) != nr_unused)
  [...] WARNING: CPU: 41 PID: 1121 at kernel/locking/lockdep_proc.c:283 lockdep_stats_show+0xba9/0xbd0

And as a result, lockdep will be disabled after this.

Therefore, nr_unused_locks needs to be accounted correctly at
zap_class() time.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
