Lockdep will warn about spinlocks used in NMI context that are also used
outside NMI context.

Now, for the kretprobe that kprobe_busy flag prevents the actual
recursion self-deadlock, but lockdep isn't smart enough to see that.

One way around this might be to use SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING for locks when
we use them from INT3 context. That way they'll have a different class
and lockdep will not see the recursion.

pre_handler_kretprobe() is always called from INT3, right?

Something like the below might then work...
