    dcache: add missing lockdep annotation · 9f12600f
    Linus Torvalds authored
    lock_parent() very much on purpose does nested locking of dentries, and
    is careful to maintain the right order (lock parent first).  But because
    it didn't annotate the nested locking order, lockdep thought it might be
    a deadlock on d_lock, and complained.
    
    Add the proper annotation for the inner locking of the child dentry to
    make lockdep happy.
    
    Introduced by commit 046b961b
    
     ("shrink_dentry_list(): take parent's
    ->d_lock earlier").
