[patch] lockdep: print irq-trace info on asserts

[Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>]

Subject: [patch] lockdep: print irq-trace info on asserts
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

when we print an assert due to scheduling-in-atomic bugs, and if lockdep 
is enabled, then the IRQ tracing information of lockdep can be printed 
to pinpoint the code location that disabled interrupts. This saved me 
quite a bit of debugging time in cases where the backtrace did not 
identify the irq-disabling site well enough.
