Cheng Jui Wang 28df029d53 lockdep: Correct lock_classes index mapping 
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 01bb6f0af9 ("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: f611e8cf98 ("lockdep: Take read/write status in consideration when generate chainkey")

README 

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.
