A kernel exception was hit when trying to dump /proc/lockdep_chains after lockdep report "BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!":
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00054005450e05c3 ... 00054005450e05c3] address between user and kernel address ranges ... pc : [0xffffffece769b3a8] string+0x50/0x10c lr : [0xffffffece769ac88] vsnprintf+0x468/0x69c ... Call trace: string+0x50/0x10c vsnprintf+0x468/0x69c seq_printf+0x8c/0xd8 print_name+0x64/0xf4 lc_show+0xb8/0x128 seq_read_iter+0x3cc/0x5fc proc_reg_read_iter+0xdc/0x1d4
The cause of the problem is the function lock_chain_get_class() will shift lock_classes index by 1, but the index don't need to be shifted anymore since commit 01bb6f0af992 ("locking/lockdep: Change the range of class_idx in held_lock struct") already change the index to start from 0.
The lock_classes[-1] located at chain_hlocks array. When printing lock_classes[-1] after the chain_hlocks entries are modified, the exception happened.
The output of lockdep_chains are incorrect due to this problem too.
Fixes: f611e8cf98ec ("lockdep: Take read/write status in consideration when generate chainkey")
