As we kmalloc our dynamic sysfs attributes, we have to give them an external static lock_class_key for them to use with lockdep.

You beat me to it, after I noticed the report on IRC and started digging, just to find sysfs_attr_init, your fix arrived. Thanks!
It looks like a standard way of silencing lockdep for this case, although I am not sure what exactly is the purpose of lock class keys in sysfs attributes, and what this kind of defeat could also imply.
I planned to do it another loop, iterating the attr array, but I don't see how it matters. It would be one static key versus the two. :?
