drm/i915: annote drop_caches debugfs interface with lockdep
The trouble we have is that we can't really test all the shrinker recursion stuff exhaustively in BAT because any kind of thrashing stress test just takes too long. But that leaves a really big gap open, since shrinker recursions are one of the most annoying bugs. Now lockdep already has support for checking allocation deadlocks: - Direct reclaim paths are marked up with lockdep_set_current_reclaim_state() and lockdep_clear_current_reclaim_state(). - Any allocation paths are marked with lockdep_trace_alloc(). If we simply mark up our debugfs with the reclaim annotations, any code and locks taken in there will automatically complete the picture with any allocation paths we already have, as long as we have a simple testcase in BAT which throws out a few objects using this interface. Not stress test or thrashing needed at all. v2: Need to EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL to make it compile as a module. v3: Fixup rebase fail (spotted by Chris).
