this patch introduced a locking bug, which is fixed by the delta patch 
below.

Subject: [patch] lockdep: more unlock-on-error fixes, fix
From: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>

my __acquire_lock() cleanup introduced a locking bug: on SMP
systems we'd release a non-owned graph lock. Fix this by
moving the graph unlock back, and by leaving the max_lockdep_depth
variable update possibly racy. (we dont care, it's just statistics)

also add some minimal debugging code to graph_unlock()/graph_lock(), 
which caught this locking bug.
