For now, wait_for_completion() / complete() works with lockdep, add
lock_page() / unlock_page() and its family to lockdep support.

Changes from v1
  - Move lockdep_map_cross outside of page_ext to make it flexible
  - Prevent allocating lockdep_map per page by default
  - Add a boot parameter allowing the allocation for debugging

   lockdep: Apply crossrelease to PG_locked locks
   lockdep: Apply lock_acquire(release) on __Set(__Clear)PageLocked
   lockdep: Move data of CONFIG_LOCKDEP_PAGELOCK from page to page_ext
   lockdep: Add a boot parameter enabling to track page locks using
     lockdep and disable it by default
I don't like the way you've structured this patch series; first adding
the lockdep map to struct page, then moving it to page_ext.
Hello,

I will make them into one patch.
I also don't like it that you've made CONFIG_LOCKDEP_PAGELOCK not
individually selectable.  I might well want a kernel with crosslock
support, but only for completions.
OK then, I will make it individually selectable.

I want to know others' opinions as well.

Thank you for the opinions. I will apply yours next spin.
