Imre Deak d9349850e1 locking/lockdep: Fix merging of hlocks with non-zero references
The sequence

	static DEFINE_WW_CLASS(test_ww_class);

	struct ww_acquire_ctx ww_ctx;
	struct ww_mutex ww_lock_a;
	struct ww_mutex ww_lock_b;
	struct ww_mutex ww_lock_c;
	struct mutex lock_c;

	ww_acquire_init(&ww_ctx, &test_ww_class);

	ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_a, &test_ww_class);
	ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_b, &test_ww_class);
	ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_c, &test_ww_class);

	mutex_init(&lock_c);

	ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_a, &ww_ctx);

	mutex_lock(&lock_c);

	ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_b, &ww_ctx);
	ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_c, &ww_ctx);

	mutex_unlock(&lock_c);	(*)

	ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_c);
	ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_b);
	ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_a);

	ww_acquire_fini(&ww_ctx); (**)

will trigger the following error in __lock_release() when calling
mutex_release() at **:

	DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(depth <= 0)

The problem is that the hlock merging happening at * updates the
references for test_ww_class incorrectly to 3 whereas it should've
updated it to 4 (representing all the instances for ww_ctx and
ww_lock_[abc]).

Fix this by updating the references during merging correctly taking into
account that we can have non-zero references (both for the hlock that we
merge into another hlock or for the hlock we are merging into).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
