---8<--- Subject: [PATCH 3.18 05/38] netlink: Annotate nlk cb_mutex by protocol
Currently all occurences of nlk->cb_mutex are annotated by lockdep as a single class. This causes a false lcokdep cycle involving genl and crypto_user.
This patch fixes it by dividing cb_mutex into individual classes based on the netlink protocol. As genl and crypto_user do not use the same netlink protocol this breaks the false dependency loop.
