    staging: lustre: quiet lockdep recursive lock warning · 9936913e

    Lockdep complains about potential recursive locking during mount
    because the client configuration log is holding a lock on the MGC
    obd_device to prevent it from being torn down, while also getting
    mutexes on the MDC and OSC devices as they are instantiated:
    
     Lustre: Mounted myth-client

    Add a separate lock class for the MGC callpath, since it will always
    be held first, and none of the other obd_device locks should ever
    be held concurrently.
