A few quick tests located the following:

When running without the new patch series, this splat does not appear.

Do I need a toolchain upgrade?  I see the Clang 14.0 in the cover letter,
but that seems to apply only to non-x86 architectures.

$ clang-11 -v
Ubuntu clang version 11.1.0-++20210805102428+1fdec59bffc1-1~exp1~20210805203044.169

Good catch! That would be lockdep telling me off for putting test
locks on the stack. :-/

I thought I had tested this with lockdep, but it seems the set of
semi-automated tests I run didn't (yet) generate a config with
KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY + LOCKDEP.

This should be fixed by:
